Not over the top but ripe plum fruit, dark berry, some earth and tobacco. Not a Can drinker these days but this is drinking well.

Enjoyed this bottle on Valentine's Day. Not as complex as I would have expected but enjoyed it with a filet. Warm berry flavors with modest amount of tannin.

Classic Napa cab nose. Black fruit, plum, and caramel giving way to a long semi-sweet tea finish. Nicely balanced and straightforward cab.

Sweet almost crystalline black & blueberry fruit chocolate, kirsch powerful but poised. Great fruit density on the palate, very pure, alcohol shows through a touch on the length, could do with a good decant. Heady stuff! 91pts

Drinking nicely. Lots of dark fruit. Blackberry and black cherry. Perfect with the steak.
