July 6, 2014 - Just delicious. Bright berry fruit, some darker fruit, nice balance and decent length. Really nice bottle.

February 21, 2014 - 750ml; PnP; Slight bricking around the edges of a dense burgundy color showing slight aging; suprisingly nice aromatic nose of rasberry, plum fruits, and spice; great tasting of plum and rasberry fruits with spice; smooth tannins but still lively; very enjoyable wine. More intriguing than other wines that night.

March 11, 2011 - The surprise of the evening. This Bordeaux style blend was bright and full of light fruit but well balanced. Showed significant complexity with evidence of strawberry, blueberry, mocha and possibly some tobacco. Compared most favorably to a 2000 Arrowood Cab and a powerful 2004 Mt. Veeder Cab. Tasted with Rick and Linda over a dinner of sockeye salmon, asparagus and blended rice followed by a dessert of gourmet chocolate cupcakes and a chocolate ganache with caramel center.
