I think the wine has lost some of its body and texture. It was more like a Pinot noir than an Oakville cab. It was very easy to drink.

Smooth start with dark fruity flavor blends on the palette and nice smooth finish.

2015 far niete. Oakville- dark and rich with a decent amount of fruit. Very easy to drink. I like it a lot. Not very complex. 9.1 $136. Not the bottle in the pic.

Dark, medium-heavy mouthfeel. Complex flavor with earth, oak, cedar, and a hint of creme de cassis. Staying warm in this subzero weather. Happy New Year to my friends on Delectable!

Tried with Dunn 2013 Napa, Le Pich 2013, Ladera Napa 2013. They cannot compete. Amazingly smooth but complex. Still has great fruit and mouthfeel with resolved tannins. Amazing.

After 2hrs chocolate, little must, quite acidic and tannic. Good but don't open the rest for 1-2.
