Silky smooth and youthful, especially for being a fifteen year old! He’s well-mannered, balanced, yet complexly juicy and blueberry- currant wholesomely good. Take this one home to mom, she’ll approve, even if there is a hint of herb about him.

A blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Cabernet Franc & 12% Merlot, with aromas of black fruits and fragrant spice. Plum and currant flavors, juicy acidity with vanilla, oak and cacao. Lingering finish, fine tannins ending with a dash of earthy pepper. Nice, but pricey, limited. Tasting Sample.

Dense, chewy, sweet fruit and definitely grippy. Violet and fresh plummy character. A "big nasty" if ever there was one. I wish I had more of these, but it paired nicely with a Fuente Flor Fino 858.

The fruit is obviously fresher but I get the same dryness (from wood tannins?) that I found in the 2005-vintage tasted alongside it.

A new wine maker to me. It will greatly benefit from age. Fantastic cab flavor but harsh mid and final finish. Only 18 barrels made. Buy and age

We don't even bother to look at the wine list anymore. Nick always knows what we'll love. Great choice tonight! Nice deep spice to it.
