Steve pulled this out in his office after work while chatting with Carly about the legal profession and employment opportunities.
Purple hue in a black background. Black fruit aromas. Black currant and ripe blackberries. Mocha and very intriguing olive note. Very approachable, tannins are well represented but not obtrusive. Probably great with a steak but worthy of just sipping and enjoying on its own.
Well, people are asking for someone with a little more credibility than yours truly so I found some guy name Jeb that seems to like it…

Even better than the blockbuster 2015, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Tench Vineyard offers incredible purity and precision paired with full-bodied power and richness. Thrilling notes of blueberries, liquid violets, and tons of crushed rock and minerality all flow to a ripe, sexy, seamless Cabernet Sauvignon that does everything right. A wine of incredible poise and stature, it has enough tannin to warrant 2-4 years of bottle age and is a 20- to 30-year wine.
Showoff!!! 
Here’s a picture of the auction item 3L Cabernet on the left. BTW the bottle on the right is a 3L Syrah, not in the auction, but I’m sure you can just email Steve if you want to purchase that one!!!
