While the 2007 was very good, this is a far more impressive cabernet. It shows great balance and poise with better varietal expression. Its pure cabernet, with a light leafiness over the dark blackcurrant and slightly black olive characters. Firm, with fine tannins and perfect oak treatment. Excellent wine.
