Upon first opening, it came with a nose of mocha and tabacco. Then ten minutes later there was a spice flavor added, which was almost curry like (perhaps a trick of my own nose but I was not around any curry). It settled in with a lovely flavorful scent with the fruit of currant and cherries. Very nice nose. Drinking the wine was equally enjoyable. Solid structure of fruit, moderate tannin and acid which gave a very nice finish. This is a very nice wine, and I bought it at Safeway yesterday for under $50 at the club price. I have had many $100 plus California cabs that were not at the quality level of this wine.
Back in awhile.
