Big wine. Loads of oak, a bit much for my liking. Seemed to settle a day or two later.

Great balance. Lovely tannin woven throughout.

A gentle giant. Chocolate aromas overlay dark fruits that breathe to red. Oak, alcohol, acidity are all in balance; tannins tame. Deceptively simple- this Cabernet shows excellent typicity and is not like those other naughty, over-extracted, -macerated Napa wines!

Stunning bottle and was a real treat to have a Californian wine... It takes us straight back on holidays.
