medium to long legs, dark reddish brown, fruit forward aroma of blackberries & blueberrires, raisins, plums, prunes, rich & full-bodied, pretty good balance of tannins & fruit with some tang from tannins/alcohol, pair with red meat -- lamb, steak

I liked this more after an overnight carafe. Awesome cedar in the nose that follows onto the palette. Some minerality and tobacco notes in the mouth. Big blackberry and dark fruit also. It's a light structure that is almost Pinot like...no tannins at this point of maturity. There is an asparagus/celery note in the front of the palette that is unique in a good way, but that note is fleeting. As my reviews often state I'm a huge L&L fan. They are great values for the price/quality. Not available everywhere so I recommend their club.

Rockin until there wasn't any left. These L&L cabs are some of the most age worthy Cabs made in Cali.

As good as usual. Big blackberry tastes and the usual leather vanilla notes. Very mature for a 10+ year bottle. Love my L&L cabs
