A nose of dark fruits and some spice, dark garnet in color. A full bodied Cab with cassis, plum, blackberry, with a spiced finish, at or near peak, still very good. www.winelx.com

Nice but not great. Muted nose but hints of black fruits and vanilla. Same on the palate, but the flavors died mid-palate and left a thin finish. Not getting any younger, time to drink soon.

Had with porterhouse and it complemented quite well and even better with dark chocolate vanilla caramels for desert. Lots of dark fruit - black cherry and blackberry on the nose. Very soft tannins with cherry and a hint of tobacco with a peppery finish. Highly recommended and can't wait for the appropriate occasion to consume the last of these in my cellar.

I'm not sure what's going on here... First 2 bottles were great (October/November 2016), but the last 2 seemed to have lost the fruit - leaving a tannic, unbalanced finish. Not terrible, but not great. I have 5 more and not sure what to do - drink or hold.

Third of nine bottles. Not as impressive as first two. This one seems to have lost its fruit.

Wow! Dark fruit (cherries and black current) on the nose. Medium to full bodied. Evolving as the night progresses. On the palette, great fruit and still plenty of tannin balance. I'd say it has another 3-5 years. Buying more (don't tell my wife).

Fantastic cab. Rich fruit notes, including blackberry and dark cherry. Nice complexity and a long finish with some oak and vanilla complementing the fruit.

- Brick color with fast forming legs and aromas of cherry. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of cherry and mint with a medium/full body.

Lovely candy nose and very flavorful. Juicy acid to cut through the sweetness. Cinnamon graham and rich red berry jam.

Huge cassis, cigar box, mocha and coconut on the nose. The palate show sweet, ripe fruit and a finish that goes on forever. This is a little more typical of what consumers would expect at this price range. Excellent effort.

Nose of currant and chocolate and hint of fir tree. Dark dusty fruit (Rutherford?) with rich mocha and cedar. Long lengthy tannins stretch out with oak on the smooth finish. Coming into its own. Another year of aging won't hurt.

Outstanding wine. Silky, long finish. Big structure to this cab. Pulled the cork about 90 minutes before drinking. Opened up nicely in the glass.
