A plush and lush nose, it's really expressive right now with really pillowy kind of aromas, just really comforting for some reason. There's a little bit of blue fruit somewhere in the back, but mostly there's darker fruits with blackberry cobbler, black cherry, raspberry flower and ripe raspberry, some plum flesh, and a fair amount of barrel in the back. The fruit is dusty and has a couple turns of black pepper passed over it, there's more leather, some black olive, and then more barrel before fruit comes back in and twines and twists with the barrel notes. This is really nice and classy Cabernet Sauvignon but with a little more structure and food friendliness than some of the bigger and fatter Napa offerings. Really really good.
