An interesting nose of ripened cherries and toast.
On the palette, it's tannic and a touch gritty. Good balance and acid structure, but finishes a touch tart. I was expecting the cab (white label). Still a lovely example, but not close to the pure cab they produce.

Nose of cedar & forest floor, tannins quite strong but wine opened up after an hour, but would benefit from more cellar time

So many 2011 wines are amazing after some cellaring. This is one of them.

Softer sweeter cherry notes with lite hints of chocolate on the finish. 100% cab and 2nd year of making this wine.

Larkmead is simply one of the best - elegant. Bright fruit coupled with gravel notes anchored by their Cabernet Sauvignon from this classic producer!
