It is rich yet somewhat light somehow. Luscious? The berries are ripe and bright and hit your palate with a punch and there are tobacco and cocoa notes lurking under all. And an almost tart finish which surprises you after all the richness. Hard core punch of the cocoa in this. That's what is staying with me. Maybe a hint of leather? I'm letting it decant a bit so I'll update if it changes a bunch.

Bold and big oak on the nose. Tannic and somewhat acidic, raspberry finish. Good solid California Cab
