  Sharp bite of alcohol with a spicy finish . Opened up a bit with time.

  Nice med+ weight Paso cab that shows good cassis type fruit character with restraint (which I like), but the back palate and finish are totally clamped down by dusty, drying tannins. This sucker's bone friggin' dry right now. If those tannins release their grip in time this could be a nice, elegant cab. Hold

  Part of 4-wine tasting of Halter Ranch - very disappointing. Some nice nose of cab fruit, but a strong dose of bell pepper is present too. Almost nothing on the taste because the raging, overbearing tannins suck everything away. Could not finish - same with the others in my group.

  Its alright, but nothing spectacular. I think I bought it from the Winery, perhaps to get a free tasting, but I wouldn't run out to buy more.

  A good cab; not too big, fruity with a little bit of grip; nicely balanced.
