Creighton Cabernet Sauvignon

Looks like a fckn mess with considerable sediment and graininess culminating into a bricky reddish brown. Cork was intact and black at the tip. Much prettier in the decanter than the glass. The nose is bright and fresh with florals, sweet macerated berries and pencil shavings. All of the classic well-aged Cabernet flavor expectations are met leaving you with the loveliest sweet plum/espresso finish. A delicious mess.

Wine had closed for more than a year. Now coming back into lucious complex tanniny cabernet. Let it breath for at least an hour. Maybe 2.

Still young. Dark and brooding with tannins waiting to mature. But this is likely to be fabulous over time.

tanic - still young. Taste of Cherry and Tabacco
