  May be past it’s prime. Enjoyed after 60 to 90 minutes - it opened up nicely.

  a little disappointed by this. Might as well be a generic napa cab. Not complex or even much rutherford dust...

  No formal notes. A return to what I remember from BV. 1-1/2 hr. decant (some serious sediment) was about right. Nose of cherry, cassis and Rutherford fruit. Tannins resolved, but good acid and fruit balance. Went very well with sliced rib. A very good wine for around $20-$35. Better (I think) for letting it sleep for a while. Enjoy now or in a year or two.

  Orange to the rim. Sweet red fruit with a hint of oak
  Medium to full body but finishes a little short
