Deep purple almost opaque. Heavy tears and staining. Dark berry vanilla and hints of butter. Pencil shavings.. Medium tannin all the nose follows the palate... Add in some blueberries..

Smooth Cabernet, power with elegance, very enjoyable even with all of its American oakiness

Needs Another 10-15 years, has the Montebello nose but still too tart on the first glass. Give it a 4 hour decant if you’re opening anytime soon
