Dark fruit with semi-soft tannins and some nice cedar and mineral notes on the finish ... It's not fruit forward, but it is sufficiently fruit enhanced that it was a pure delight to drink and very food friendly ... as it opened it also added a bit of coffee bean to the finish; and that added to the complexity and the enjoyment of this 7 year old bottle.

A nose of dark fruits and spices, dark garnet in color. A full bodied red, with black cherry, cassis, cocoa and spice on long finish, an enjoyable wine. www.winelx.com

A dry tannin laden and unbalanced wine. Other than that the wine has some fruit forward expression and is an attempt at modern cab but it is simply not crafted well enough to mean anything to me.

Heavily oaked California fruit bomb. Dark fruit and vanilla on the nose. blast of dark fruit (black cherry and black currant) with all vanilla on the finish. Not my style of wine but if it's your style you may like this wine.

Bold dark fruit tastes combined with some chocolate notes. A bit tanic on the finish
