Was not expecting much based on other's notes but it opened dark and with a slight but pleasant nose. Some dark fruit, smokiness and tannins that were still puckering but folded back in after 30 minutes or so. It just lacks that little bit of "oomph" that would have really made it a great bargain. Still, glad I've held onto it till now.

Agree with other reviews. I don't get this wine. I taste the dark fruit, and a bit of smoke. Medium heavy on the palate with good balance. Light aroma for such a medium heavy body. Good wine overall. No Pine ridge or Frog Prince

Leslee: A great wine for those who love a good Napa Cab. Highly ratable, with dense tannins + ripe fruit.

Just didn't get this wine. Nose was absent, and very nondescript on the palate. I hope the next bottle is better.
