96-97. Got some cherry, cassis, black currant, cola. Finish could be bigger but good up front and mid-palate.

Mar 22nd, 2018Much more accessible and fruity than the '14 hunnicutt 935. The hunnicutt will improve over time but this is drinking well right now (but still will benefit with a few years) . the bone ash is more of your opulent cab compared to this. 96-97.

Drinks great out of the bottle a Real rich big wine with a touch of sugar / sweetness , huge black raspberry jam notes with intense fig on back end. A huge wild berry bouquet on nose with a hue of cardamom with 30 second plus finish !

Amazing wine! Great to serve when friends come in from near and far.

Apr 2nd, 2016Kurt never disappoints however I'm glad I purchased my total allotment for this wine as it is way to young to drink at this point. Another 10 years and this will definitely be 100 point Cab. Until then we wait!

Rich plum yet floral scent. Rich dark color, but a lighter cab. It's a young wine and would be delicious in a few years! Still enjoyable tonight though.
