Excellent quality old school Cabernet. Blackcurrants, fig, sweet tobacco, iron, leather. Bordelaise in its structure and precision. Worth seeking out.

2010 vintage. Upon opening I got plenty of floral notes from the bottle, dark lilac and soft red flowers. Half an hour later the vegetal notes come out, from bell peppers to what seems like whole stem inclusion. Half an hour after that is when the fruit comes forward, with these just ripe red raspberries and sweet blackberry. I love how much this twists and turns once opened, and while it could be cellared for another 10 years, it is still a fantastic Napa cab right now.

Give this wine 2 hours in the decanter, really softens up. Gravel, dust, blackberries, tobacco, cured black olives. I would lay down for 5 or more years.

The standard by which Napa cab should be measured. Rich and complex, beautiful fragrant nose. Layered fruit that builds to later spice and tannin. The 2010 is a favorite.
