Deep ruby in color; cassis, blackberries, and graphite on the nose; medium minus acidity; high tannins; tastes like green peppercorns, menthol, wet gravel, and clay dust with a long finish. I think it needs to breath for a bit.
After a little time in the glass it added a black cherry flavor to what I de ribbed above. Much more on balance. It tastes like an old world cab. It's a little bitter, otherwise I would rate it higher.

May 11th, 2024Really good cab, though I’d like it to be aged another year to mellow out the tannins a bit more. Leather and lots of dark cherry, cooking spices/oak chips. Full bodied, lingers well.
