Good nose of minty blackcurrant which in common with some other Napa cabernets gives a slightly medicinal flavour. Still has the tannins to plateau for a decade or more but seems to lack the complexity to improve further. Good balance of fruit.

Noticed some crystals on the cork. Slow legs, aroma of dark berries and some green coming through. Taste - the green is prominent here, followed by berries and dark coffee notes. The all too familiar mineral edge comes in at the end. Medium finish. Great accompaniment to the grilled lamb.

Was yummy, nice and deep full cab with good fruit. Definitely could have used a little more air before we started drinking it (had about 30 min in bottle)

Nothing special, pleasant, smooth but lacks the boldness i look for. Would not rebuy at the price

Beautiful dried fruit with that Rutherford dust, it tasted oh so smooth and delicate.
Cheers!
