Dark, rich fruit, menthol, cocoa. Alcohol stuck out way too much. Disappointing

Dec 29th, 2017Deep almost blackish red coloration. Wreaks of elementary school marks-a-lot, licorice, and forest floor. Weighty attack of blackberry compote, licorice, and cassis with medium finish of chewy tannins and bright acidity. Still has some weight and tannin to shed but will retain its freshness due to its great amount of acid.

Rich and deep but not a ton of complexity. One of the better Washington State cabs I've had. Most I hate and find gloppy.

Jan 26th, 2014Incredibly dark tannic wine - not showing a ton of fruit but okay. I recall it being better several years ago
