This Cab is serious business, and could not be mistaken for any other variety. It's excellent but curmudgeonly, without any flavors that you'd ever call feminine. Fruit is big and black, ripe but not sweet, with smudges of dirt, as though it took a tumble in a fistfight. Oaky tannins through and through. May soften in its older age—drink after 2007.
