Decent complexity and depth, but lacks the rich fruit I was expecting from a Cali cab at this price point. Considerably overpriced at $33, in my opinion.

Needed time to open up to attain the same depth I tasted at the winery. Once it did, it had wonderfully rich and smooth fruit. I have since found it at SD Wine Co for $20 - that's a great deal!!

nose: chocolatey black currants, taste: fruit forward, heat and a touch of spice, woody finish, big flavors all the way through, berries, jammy and textured, a touch of sweetness that emphasizes the fruitiness, a smooth stand alone cab

Aerated and decanted. Rich strawberry and raspberry notes, long finish. A bit hot on the alcohol, but the tannins were well integrated.

Strong cab characteristics of leather and tobacco at a very good price point
