2012v with 3% PV. Dark cherry, cassis, raspberry, clove, cedar peppercorn, and tobacco notes. One of the best Oakville Cab's I've had in recent memory. This is one for the cellar.

Great pure fruit-lift and nicely balanced on the palate.
93+ in my book.

This bottle just didn’t meet my expectations. Hoping my other Oakville Ranch 2012’s will show better than this one.

Fantastic on its own or with food. Cherry, clove, subtle tannins and with jazz music 😉
