Short decant at the restaurant and into the glass.
On the nose, baked dark fruit, vanilla and subtle oak. Initial notes were succulent black cherry, blackberry, vanilla and baking spice. This opened up with notes of chocolate, cigar box and leather. Lingering finish of vanilla and oak.
Med+ bodied, dry with the right amount of sweetness, chocolate tannins and incredibly smooth.
This is a very nice Cali Cab Sauv. Paired with an 8oz tenderloin and this was a winning combo.

Quite oaky even on the 3rd day. Some plums and good acid and moderate tannins. Just quite a bit of oak that seems to take over.

Agree with others, a little disappointing even after a long decant.

My personal rating: 88
Nice body. Pleasant on the palate. Tannins are somewhat prominent. Not worth $60 a bottle but would buy it again on sale.
