2010. Less ripe than the Howell. Focus is on structure rather than fruit and this is a big, dense wine. A lot of loamy earth. I think that this wine has a long way to go but it has the potential to be great when it gets there.

Good but too tight as others have said. It’s just too young. Certainly has incredible promise and strength now. But the 2014 has not found its way here in late 2019. It’s a wonderfully extracted and potent cab. Give it some time and it will likely yield outstanding rewards. - cheers
