Double decant (decent chunky sediment) and pour. A splendiforous dark purple color, with the start of some bricking on the edge. On the nose: creme brulee, black fruit, green veggie, earthy. Taste: blackberry, smoke, pepper, chocolate, sweet but still there tannins and decent acidity keep it fresh....a velvety dense wine that goes long....believe the Family Reserve cab gets a longer time in the barrel than the Reserve cab.
