Dark red, opaque, full bodied, subdued tannins. Exceptional rich fruit. Smooth. Delicious. Fully matured. An outstanding Cabernet. Regrettably my final bottle of several bottles of this wine, each of which has been a little better than the last.

Love the nose of this wine. Cassis dominates with a hint of a blueberry compote and anise to finish. A well balanced wine with a very pleasant dark berry flavor across the palate. The finish is pleasant just doesn’t not linger for long. Really enjoyed this wine. It still had some nice tannins left. I went with a one hour decant and this wine still improved over the course of dinner. Would say this still has a few years left for sure.

Nose shows rich, powerful fruit & a touch of menthol. On the palate a well-extracted Cabernet by Kurt Venge with blackberry syrup, blueberry pie, licorice, and a long finish. A hint of funky mushroom also is lightly present. This is a powerful wine, would have liked to see a little more tannin. In 2022 this is drinking at its peak in my humble opinion.

The drinking window goes through 2025, but I am going to drink my last bottle of the 2014 very soon. Drink now, it is peaking.
