January 1, 2021 - Still good after all this time.
Fruit did mellow out.
Lost some dryness.
Lost some depth and complexity.
But still drinks good, smooth and nice finish.
Should have drank a few years ago. But good enough to still finish the bottle ;) -

July 23, 2014 - I have liked every Sterling offering I have tried. Always a good wine for a good price. I wouldn't call this cab a particularly well-balanced wine, but a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Flavorful fruit, full body, appropriate tannin and acidity. Satisfying finish. I'm buying more tomorrow.
