This high-end Cab already has some bottle age on it and is ready to drink now. The nose is a regional expressive combo of ripe plums and dark fruits, coffee, chocolate, ground black pepper, pencil lead and toasty oak. Bottle age has settled the fruit into place, allowing spices to float to the fore. The palate is a neat package of fine tightly wound and slightly woody tannins and fruit… Overall, this is a sturdy, focused wine… – C.P.
