8/1/2017 - mflesh wrote: 96 pointsThis cab is RIDICULOUS. Poured a dark maroon into the glass. Nose of herbs (more like a sage), black pepper, blackberry, grilled meat, and grape bubblegum. The entry is fruit forward, but only a bit. Purple and black fruits, oregano, lavender. The middle of the wine is quite silky. Hint of cola. The wine finishes a little acidic. Although the tannin are rather soft and showed some integration after decanting for 3 hours, the wine is still youthful and will certainly improve over the next 10-15 years. This is a locked up MONSTER of a wine. Glad I have two more of these. |

6/1/2022 - AGELVIS Likes this wine: 95 pointsCoravined. Deep dark ruby color. Dark raspberry, underripe blackberry, white chocolate dreamsicle, and nutmeg on the nose. Very smooth, dry, full bodied palate, with nice acidity. Very firm, full tannins on the surprisingly long finish. |

9/14/2019 - Millennial Drinkers wrote: 93 pointsDeep purplish ruby red. A bit herbal with flowers, dark berries, cocoa, spiced, minerality and blackberries on the nose. Still a baby with tight tannins (7.5/10) and a bit of acidity and full bodied. Dark berries on the palate, with some blueberries, baking spices, tons of minerality and pepper. Long finish. Drink till 2030. |

3/9/2019 - quaffnov Likes this wine: 93 pointsTwo hour decant, the nose has tobacco and dark fruit with a palate that starts out slightly muted and a little tart but really blossoms with a little more time in the glass so give this plenty of air in the decanter. This opens up even more when paired with food, a certain level of sweetness comes out that is very enjoyable. A medium mouthfeel with a longer finish makes this a very good bottle. |

4/17/2015 - jsums wrote: 93 pointsDark ruby color. Nose: bottled black cherry, blueberry, blackberry, and dried redcurrant with accents of tobacco, cedar, dates, roses/violets, baking spices, dark chocolate, vanilla, and licorice root. Medium/full body on the palate: bottled black cherry, blueberry, black raspberry, and dried redcurrant framed by tobacco, baking spices, licorice root, dark chocolate, vanilla, black tea, and crushed rock. Medium+ acidity. Moderate tannins. Lingering black cherry skin, tobacco, baking spices, and crushed rock on the long finish. Supremely elegant dinner wine. Bordeaux-esque in a very good way. Pair with roast duck, grilled pork chops, mushroom-sauced filet mignon, or roast pork tenderloin. Drink over the next 4-6 years. |

8/4/2023 - AGELVIS Likes this wine: 92 pointsThirty minute double decant. Deep dark hazy ruby magenta color. Boysenberry, parsley, white chocolate, and perhaps subtle eucalyptus. Smooth, dry palate. Firm, full tannins on the longish finish. |

6/26/2022 - AGELVIS Likes this wine: 92 pointsTwo hour decant (needs 3-4). Very deep ruby magenta color. Black cherry compote, cinnamon graham cracker, charred red plum, and subtle fennel on the nose. Smooth, dry palate, with nice pixelated acidity. Firm, full tannins on the longish finish. |

4/5/2018 - DanielJH wrote: 92 pointsThis is way sweeter than I am used to in a Cabernet, but it is finely tuned to carry it well. Beautiful spicy nose of raspberries, blackcurrants and cedar. The palate carries sweet raspberries, plums and blackcurrant, chocolate, vanilla, cinamon, cloves and nutmeg. The fruit is intense, but the balance is good. It has a bright acid profile and its fine tannins paint the mouth, driving a long and juicy finish. Not everyone’s style, but a real crowd pleaser that goes very well with roast meats, particularly fatty lamb. A wine for Winter. |

Sciandris are some of the best people in Napa and know how to please their following. Please keep price and quality relative. |

6/16/2017 - Gestalted Likes this wine: 92 pointsOf course, while I'm drinking this I'm mentally comparing to Altamura. At $50, it's a ridiculous steal. Syrah/Cab blend. Loads of roasted plum, mocha and rich oaky character. A winner for certain. |

9/3/2016 - Spitulnik wrote: 91 pointsThis is a big wine. Dry, rich, cherry skins, blackberry jams, and tobacco at this point, with a fantastic, long finish. It definitely mellowed after a while -- let it breathe a bit before diving in. Great with rich bold food, but I'm also enjoying a glass after dinner on the patio with a smidge of dark chocolate. This wine will cellar well, but who wants to wait? Yum, thanks RyanS! |

7/2/2020 - Coachron13 Likes this wine: 91 pointsStill young and burly. 65 cab, 35 syrah, have always liked those varieties together. A little more age time to smooth it out even more would bump it up another notch. |

3/20/2021 - gmbdds wrote: 91 pointsSurprisingly forward for a Sciandri. Ripe and nearly sweet berry notes. Still, the quality of fruit is there and there is enough licorice and earth to keep things interesting. Drink near term due to its easy approachability. |

2/14/2023 - air guitar & pinot noir wrote: 91 pointsThe fruit was muted a bit in this blend. I had expected a bit more richness of flavor. It lacked the vibrancy I had hoped for. Not sure where this will go over time. It seems the Syrah is dominant over the Cabernet in this blend as I got more savory notes than fruit. Dark berry and oak influenced. A bit tannic. |
