Nice plush dark fruits, baking spices, lengthy finish.

Third Vintage of this #cabernetsaugvinon #wine I've had and the consistency is again spot on. Tasted almost five hours after opened and still tight.

Closed aromas leaning towards cassis and blackberries. Fine, focused and extremely pure texture. Smooth finish with espresso and bitter cocoa. Definitely early, this wine will age for awhile. Lives up to top tier Rutherford quality.

Opened 3/3/16

Incredibly pure. Gorgeous focus. I was very impressed, even at this young age.

Backberry, subtle fennel, cedar and hints of green pepper and olive near the end. Lots of tannins. Tasted best on day three with food. I will hold off for now on the others. Should do well.
