B Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard

Currently comes across somewhat over oaked, tannic and extracted, altho after an evening, settles down a bit. Will wait a while, but this is not my style right now. Don't agree with. 2015 end date. This is no where near done yet- or said another way it better improve.

PnP. Very grapey and fruity nose that seems artificial to me. Inky black color. The same sort of artificial element on the palate with masses of super-ripe black fruit and a bit of minerals. Noticeable alcohol. Not much vineyard character or interest. Terrible value. If you like this style, this producer make better wine costing half as much. Started to fall apart in the glass after 15 min.
