Fantastic wine entering peak drinking zone. Deep garnet color, rich nose redolent with dark fruit. Rich on the palate with a long finish. Great acidity, great tannic structure.

Deep ruby red. Definitely from a cooler vintage. Notes of bell pepper, wet earthiness, and some red berries. Moderate tannins (6.5/10) and medium plus body. Spiced palate, a bit savory, earthy, red berries, herbal, and quite a bit of bell peppers. Medium plus finish. Drink till 2023.

Pretty good, fairly average Napa cab. Slightly strong tannins showing directly out of the bottle, will be better in a few years I'm guessing, but still enjoyable today. I think there are a lot of better wines out there at this price point, but this is sort of exactly what you'd expect from a random $50 bottle of Napa cab that someone gives you as a gift (like this was for me!)

Opened about an hour before drinking. Smooth tannins from the start, nice fruit, tasty wine

3 hrs decant, threw off a fair amount of sediment. Some mineral, leather, mixed fruits. Nothing special.
