  Still delicious. Inky purple and kept good front structure though dies off at the end.

  Saw this at an auction. Never heard of this winery so did some research. Fraud. Stolen grapes. Etc etc. Paid only $15 per bottle. Not a bad wine for the price paid but something is missing. The first sip was the best and the wine didnt improve overnight. Had to pair with food to finish the bottle.

  Dark but not inky ruby. Tight nose of cassis, oak, and a touch of violet. Medium to full bodied, blackberries, dusty cherries, grainy tannins, smoke, sage, chocolate, a bit of heat, good acid, and a dry, medium finish. Fairly average cab, maybe a bit disjointed at this moment.

  Well made california cab; lots of fruit and oak but the wine has some depth. Silky texture. Tannins were quite soft for such a young wine. Paid only $30 though it supposedly retails for $100 -- wouldn't pay that much. (Note that the winery is no longer in business and the wine maker has been charged with criminal offenses; see NYT article.)
