Our first Rudius cab and it was definitely a winner. My wife proclaimed, "Mmm...I really like this!" after her first sip. Me, too. Looking forward to the release of the '12s this week.

Good stuff! Nuances of oak and vanilla. Blackberries and currants. Savory elements mixed in. Tannins are fairly grippy. Should be outstanding in a few, but lots of pleasure as a baby now!

Nice deep color, rich black fruit nose. Integrated tannins for a young wine. Balanced and approachable.

Great wine w/ lamb shank for our (delayed) Easter dinner. I will need to get me some more of this one.

Very nice at first, but fell apart after a couple of hours.

Dark ripe fruit, molasses and tobacco. Great mouth feel. Almost as good as it gets.
