Sunday, February 12, 2023 - Tasted from a well-cellared bottle that was popped and poured at a walk-around Super Bowl party, this opaque ruby/red wine (a blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot) was serially sampled over a three-hour period, during which time it continued to evolve. Delivering a payload of dark plums, wild berries, orange zest, licorice, dark chocolate and exotic spices, it is a full-bodied, freshly acidic, proportionately oaked wine with surprisingly well-integrated alcohol when served at 60-65°F (despite being listed as 15.7%). Wrapping its flavors with plentiful polished tannins, it stays solid in the middle and lingers nicely on the finish. This well-crafted, structured Cab will provide pleasure for many years to come. Drink now-2039.
