  More typical Cabernet/Bordeaux nose than the 2003 Helena Montana. A little green pepper. A lot of vanilla oak. Softening but still noticeable tannin.

  Very light style Cabernet, somewhat faded. Touch of bitterness, perhaps oxidization. Not my favorite at the price point and didn't stand up to ribeyes but certainly drinkable.

  Drink em if you got em. Past its prime. Tannins fully subsided, and smoothness on the palate, along with hint of oak, wood, forest floor and minerals. No fruit whatsoever.

  The wine is drinking fabulous. 20 or so minutes and it's ready to roll.Smooth seamless dark berries and plum with a on ongoing finish that leaves you wanting more.

  Enticing cigar-box aroma, nice balance of forest floor and fruit, crisp and fresh, but lacks the richness and depth needed for a higher score
