Phenomenal! Sexy and silky smooth. Fabulous bouquet. Full-bodied and beautifully integrated. Milk chocolate, black cherries, blueberries. Satisfying finish. Oh my!

Big wine just as you’d expect. Realm to be ... 3 hours of decanting and the wine remained ‘tight’ .. next time decent in AM :)

Interesting cab - smooth and structured, with softer qualities. Very good by itself - no food required.
