  Another bottle from our "drink up" list, and unquestionably should be on it. Subdued stewed black fruit, earthy, cedar and black pepper. The finish shows the cedar flavor with piney notes, but a little rough. This wine needs food and did show well with out take-out flank steaks. Drink up.

  This wine is ready now. Very powerful cab with a great finish that stood up to a heavy meal. Decanted for over 2 hours. Miner wines never fail to deliver

  Fruit forward and well balanced cab from Miner. Dark fruit but with brightness from good acidity. Smooth finish. Complemented filet Mignon dinner.

  Stagecoach, Miner/Oakville, and Buccella fruit. 55% new French for 21 months. 8% Cab Franc, 2% Merlot. very Bordeaux in aroma. Green pepper, but very classy green pepper and blackberry aromas. medium plus acid. very nice showing.

  Excellent nose, causes a mandatory second smell. Needs a little time to open up.
