This is a deep, dark youthful cab that is attractively floral with a gently spicy nose. It is very supple in the mouth with fruit notes of cherry and currant, enhanced by rich earthy-woody elements to create an attractive melange. Though lovely now with charming cherry and vanilla tones, it will evolve even further over the next three to five years.

Rating for United States-California: 90 (slightly better than average year)<br/><br/>Drinkability: too young, let it sit<br/>
