Oaky berry campfire. Not a typical cab. Lay down a few years to take off some fruit for some more substance. — 8 years ago

9.0

Classic cherries, leather, dirt, sweet and sour, balsamic and American oak. Better after a couple hours on the decanter. It doesn't knock my socks off, but it's an amazing value at the price. — 9 years ago

A real big boy wine. The richness and luster of the fruit , oak and blending is world class. It gets no better than this unless it ages another 10 years. — 11 years ago

Nice to read, we have the '11 in the cellar for the birthyear of my daughter. I understood it was not a long living vintage, but your post shows the contrary 👍
