Not showing well, with a heavy fullness of jammy berry-cherry fruit and strong tannins. Sweet oak sticks out like a sore thumb. Its future is hard to predict. Most wines that age gracefully start out impressive. This one just tastes overwrought. The score reflects crossed fingers for improvement.

Tastes young and aggressive now, with black currant and oak flavors and hard tannins. But there’s something rich and interesting, a depth and complexity that suggest time in the cellar. Give it a good six years, and try again.

Made in the modern cult style, this Cab is soft, voluptuously oaky and extracted in perfectly ripe blackberries and currants, with spicy, oaky notes. It’s refined and classically Napa and impressive, although it’s not that much different from other Cabs of its pedigree.
