Not my style. Too much oak/jammy fruit. Well made so maybe I didn't give it enough air/cellar time.

Black cherry, tea, and menthol flavors. Full bodied and velvety. Solid but a notch below other vintages.

Slightly disappointing. Love their BDX and, as a cab drinker, was hoping for this to be a new favorite. Not loving it, yet. Possibly too much oak. Nice nose. Seems like this could get better, but it just isn't there yet.
