From memory from a club tasting. Moderate to dark color. Pretty nose. Medium to light bodied CabS. Very pretty and nuanced, showing a light hand in wine making.

Notes of concentrated berries and vanilla. Tannin level is high and acidity level is medium. Mouthfeel is full. Overall, the wine is sweet and concentrated with indiscrimate berry notes. It tastes like it was fermented from concentrated grape juice.

It is hard to miss at any price point with a Mondavi product, Consistency and quality are thier hallmarks. While not scoring top marks, this Oakville Cabernet has all the qualities of a Napa Cab you would expect. Bold grapes, strong tannins stack up nicely with grilled meats. It lacks a little finnese and a tad short on the finish that kept it under a 90 for me, but would definitely purchase again,

Drinking really well - Good color and Body, Soft mouth feel, round, lots of Plum and berries. Easy finish was perfect with my steak.

Straightforward. Black and red fruit. Moderate tannins. Quaff now.

Very smooth and concentrated but a little hot on the finish. Howard brought it from Mile High Wines. Not as good as the Pine Ridge he brought on 5/22.
