Crushed blackberries, spice, pie crust, barrel toast, dark molasses. Softened tannins, however enough grip signal this needs time. Finishes with autumn leaves and dried savory herbs.

Now it's my turn to try this bad boy from Perliss. It was indeed an experience getting through the tough wax seal, but after a couple of YouTube videos and a few attempts I got the damned thing open! Seriously there needs to be a better way. Use the pull-tab a la Makers Mark. Anyway on to the wine, which is indeed really good! 100% Cabernet, the 2012 is made by Aaron Pott and I've become a huge fan of his wines. This one's from Calistoga and is brimming with dark fruit as well as chocolate and some toffee flavors. Totally drinkable now. Cheers!

Black currants and big fruit still very tight and young can benefit from a few years of bottle age notes of dried red fruits

Needs air. Big cab all the way. Great nose. Firm tannins.
