Nice wine. Quite restrained if there even is such a thing for Napa cabs. Polished tannins, dark berries, med acidity. Not much in complexity and finish.

An ok bottle but not as good as expected considering the tasting notes. This wine isn't really close to what I've come to expect from a 90+ Napa cab/red blend. Although it is a bit better than the 2012 the finish was weak and there was not enough complexity to make it very interesting. There seems to be a big void in the mid palate. I kept expecting something to develop there and got nothing. For me this was more in the league of a simple every day bottle. In my opinion this wine is over rated and over priced.

Medium Ruby. On the nose, medium plus intensity of red cherries, mulberries, blackberry bramble, wet stone, vanilla, dust. On the palate the wine is dry with medium plus acidity and high fine ripe silky tannins, medium plus body and high alcohol. The palate has medium plus intensity flavors of black and red cherries, blackberries, cloves, cinnamon, toast, vanilla, dried blueberries and a long finish. This wine is well balanced, has lenght and intensity and is absolutely delicious. Outstanding.

This was a very nice wine. Aromas of dark berry and dark chocolate filled the glass. Flavors of blueberry, blackberry, and mocha with fine tannins surround the tongue, followed by a medium finish. This is a great wine for Alpha Omega at a great price point.
