Looking back at comments, latest being from 2015, all I can say is it was worth holding off longer! Absolutely delish, beautiful, smooth and well rounded. I am talking about the wine! I only have a few bottles left of that vintage, need to decide whether to drink now or hold off a bit longer.

Developed nicely after 8 years - good dark fruit, well balanced, and rounded out with leather and tobacco. Maybe slightly past its peak.

Fairly similar to the '09 Bravante cab I had a few days ago, but with a little more structure. Drink up, as I don't see it improving from here.

This is in a great place at the moment. Fruit forward, for sure, but the fruit is absolutely delicious.
