A generous portion of snappy dark fruit coated in a soft glove of vanilla and spice box. Very primary at the moment. Tannins have softened. Can easily enjoy now and should bring pleasure past 2025, potentially benefitting from some additional age, allowing some secondary characteristics to come into play.

Relatively speaking, this tastes expensive yet watered-down... but I'm not surprised since it's an 11'. I've tasted plenty worse Cabernets from good vintages, but I don't think this quite escapes the perils of 2011.

Blackberry compote and baby powder on the nose with a velvety puff of black currant that sprawls across the palate like a Bond enchantress. Purrrrrrrr.
