6/29/2017 - spicy1 Likes this wine: 92 pointsWas not familiar with this winery. Found the bottle in the "special reserve" section at Bonefish Grill at a fair price ($69) after checking the CT ratings and reviews. Was impressed that this young wine was ready to drink--smooth mouthfull of black cherry with light herb notes. Tannins fully integrated. Wondering how often good wines get lost in the marketing world when they have bland names (and labels) like "Hall"?

2/7/2021 - Glenn228 wrote: 91 pointsDeep ruby color. Earthy, oak smoke aromas. Tannic and dry to the finish with clay and black cherry tastes. Got a great price of $25 at Central Market, putting a few bottles away to taste a in a couple years. Could be great.

I was unable to express this, but this is exactly the right expression to convey how I feel about the recent Caymus cabs. And yet, knowing this, I'm still somewhat drawn to them.
