Very light in color and taste. Not much to it. Probably would not buy again.

Not nearly as good as other bottle we had. Wish I had one more to break the tie.

Drank from magnum. Wonderful fresh fruit on the nose and very silky on the tongue. Really exceptional. Drank with bone-in rib eye on New Year's Eve (12/31/12).

First cab of the night on New Year's Eve (12/31/12). A bit tannic, but great fruit showing through. Probabyyl should have had this with the steaks at dinner instead of before. Was really good but was blown away by the second cab of the night (2007 Chappellet Pritchard Hill in magnum).

Plush with nicely integrated tannins. Drinking very well right now. Went great with the balsamic marinated hanger steak.

Fruit seems to have subsided a bit. Not bad but expected a little more out of this.

Tremendous SB. Fruit on the palate and nose, but not too much citrus. Has more body and structure than most other SBs. This wine never disappoints.

Great Bordeaux-like blend. Everything has integrated nicely since I last had it 3-4 years ago. It is ready to drink now but will probably last another few years.

Really enjoyed this wine for the price (about $10). Had some depth not expected at this price point.

Very watered down. Had a slight chlorine smell. Might have been a bad bottle but I only had 1 to try.
