The 89-90 aggregate score listed here is very fair. I would give it a 90-91 score but I suspect I am nitpicking -- mainly b/c I tend to embrace the wines from the Iberian peninsula. So, I like to think I am a fair, knowledgable judge. Grab this one. Particularly if you can steal it for under $15. Still enjoying the second day.

We love this wine. Everyone we have served either the '11 or the '12 vintage to has commented positively. It reminds me of the '89 Caymus (an off year) I picked up in '91 and that was a huge hit. You won't confuse this with Cakebread, however.
