Young, powerful Napa Cab! Needs another 3-5 years cellaring, 25 years of life ahead. Heavy tannin, big juicy cherries/cassis and enough oak to balance it all out.

This was terrible. All syrupy fruit, VA, alcohol, and harsh tannin. No balance.

Not ready. Tannins were not smooth yet. Plenty of fruit and structure, so in a couple of years, it will be great.

A flawed bottle may be affected by cork taint, heat (maderized), oxidation, or excessive sulfur. Additionally, some people consider wines tainted by Brettanomyces (Brett), a non-spore forming genus of yeast, a flaw although there is much controversy surrounding the subject.
