Still youngish, no bricking, still fruit forward, this Cabernet is big, lush, and elegant now. Black fruit heavy, whiff of oak, noticeable menthol, but everything here seems settled and in good form. Delicious. Cellar kept since purchase.

Wow - this bottle was great. Once the alcohol blew off (30 mins) it had so much dark black fruit with a little leather and nice backbone of acidity and tannins. This is peak and should be consumed over the next 2 years or so. Will keep an eye out for more from Krupp brothers.

Similar notes to previous bottle, but that's actually a bit of a pleasant surprise. I drank the previous one almost 3 years ago and I didn't necessarily think it would hold up all that well. Still showing plenty of ripe, red fruit on the nose an palate. It's actually integrated better than I thought it would and is even showing some nice dark, chewy, tannins on the back end.
