...93 and climbing. As soon as the cork leaves the bottle the enjoyment starts in the form of aroma; and It fills the air beyond imagination. A few minutes of patience is when the fun begins. The great meal became secondary to this great bottle---and there's another one still sleeping in the Euro cave.

PLEASE give it a chance to open--you will be handsomely rewarded. It's got everything that you're looking for; color, taste, bouquet, and that special yummy feeling at the end.

Decanted for a little over an hour. Black cherry and really nice complexity. As with most of Arroyo's Winemaker Reserve wines, a good dose of oak (but not too much). Long smooth finish. Overall, a very well made cabernet.

Wonderful NYE choice. This last bottle lasted forever and was fitting to a pleasant dinner--and no we didn't eat meat.

Interesting, creamy nose with metallic undertone. Taste agrees with smell with some tartness. Score [50 + 5 + 12 + 15 + 8] = 90.
