Great wine - 50% Cab, 50% Merlot. Very structured. Needs to go to sleep for minimum 5 years when it will be fantastic. Not exactly cheap at $90, so the value proposition remains a bit shaky especially comparing to the higher scoring Merlot at 35 bucks.

2014 vintage with Beef Wellington on 12/31/23. Well balanced wine with smooth tannins. Has a long life ahead of it.

Ending this year on a good note! Excellent 2014 blend - wish we had more to cellar.

This wine blew me away! Youthful no doubt, but the red fruit is ripe and dark without heaviness or over extraction. Just a pure, elegant, textured thing of beauty. 50/50 Merlot and Cab.
