What a killer bottle! Brite medium ruby. Nose of high red fruits, cherries & strawberries, sweet allspice, red plums, and vanilla. Entry is seamless, weighty center and a 4+ lapper finish. Firm but supple tannins still evident but doesn't intrude on the finish. Could improve for another 2-3 but who cares? This suckers' so pleasant now I'm not gonna gamble. The next 9'll be gone in the next 2. 92/93. 30 by the box. 14.2% alc. WW ( FWIW the blend is 76% cabernet, 18% merlot, 4% cab fraanc, and 2% petite verdot)
