  Starting to show nice secondary development. A touch hot and lots of oak or would have scored higher.

  Deep red color on rim of glass. Nice bouquet aroma. Tastes of oak on palate with hints of cherry but there was nothing amazing about this bottle. Got great reviews, can't tell why. The wine is good, but nothing popped out at me and said WOW. I didn't score it as obviously many people seem to think this was an exceptional bottle and I didn't want to mess with the great scores. If I had to I would say 89 at best. There are so many other Napa cabs that I thought was much better. Still a very drinkable wine at a good price that will drink for another year or so.

  Very nice wine. A restrained wine that is easy drinking with or without food, made in the classical way. Need to consider buying some more as it is a good price for the quality.
