This wine reminded me of why I like good wine so much. Every once in a while you taste a world class wine that just has the depth, finesse, and polish that makes you smile and want to immediately take another sip. Close your eyes when sipping and you might imagine aromas and flavors of dark plums, ripe blackberries, and maybe even blueberries, along with just a wisp of toasty oak and a kiss of vanilla and caramel. The wine is silky smooth with very subtle soft dusty tannins for the long finish you'd expect from a wine of this caliber. This cellar worthy Cab is surprisingly already approachable if you just can't wait.
