Huge amounts of extracted red fruit and a nice layer of fine oak. The tannins are silky folks. Fruit bomb city...πŸ€˜πŸΌπŸ€˜πŸΌπŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸ·πŸ·

This is gonna need air. not showing much complexity so far compared to the 12 and 13. Coravin'd a 2014 pine ridge standard cab and it was tasting better right out of the bottle

Update: didn't improve much. Too much acid. Didn't feel balanced.

Medium-bodied. Bright and red-fruited with almost a strawberry/raspberry note on the finish. Pleasant and refreshing. I was happy to find this on the wine list at a restaurant in Rapid City, SD.

What a beautiful Cab. I let if breathe for about two hours and it softened quite nicely. Full bodied with hints of tobacco, plum and blackberry jam. Robust yet a velvety smooth full bodied finish makes this wine just a joy to drink.

A little young still, but opens up nicely given some time. Full bodied, berry flavors.
