Sweet oak spice, red cherry, dark berry, and hints of dried cherry & floral aromas, all of which come through nicely on the balanced, medium-full bodied palate. Elegant tannins are well-integrated, while fresh acids provide lift. Very good finish length. Tasted Nov/2018.

Nicely ripened Cabernet fruit, bolstered by a bit of vanilla and coffee from the oak. Tannin is nicely managed, making the wine drinkable today, yet should hold through 2024 or so without concern. A shade less oak would have pushed my score above 90, but that's just my oak-a-phobia. tasted Aug 2020.
