Garnet red, noe is a little muted but leans towards a tarry strawberry and some boiled cabbage. Fine tannins, blackberries, pepper, and dark cherries. A repeat buy for me and I see no reason to change:)

Second vintage of this wine which I’ve had the pleasure to enjoy. Decanted prior to enjoying with a NY sirloin steak.. Big Cabernet nose with a huge black, moist earth component, followed by flavors of sweet black spicy blackberry, ripe black plum, cassis, black cherry, and cedar mulch, underscored with a smooth, rich balanced structure. Showing early complexity and lots of future upside potential. Outstanding now, but will only improve for the next 10-15 years.

5th anniversary - had with steak. Very good. Needs more time to really breakthrough with the wow factor, but i think that’s coming.

Very good Cal Cab. Vert tannic still, but the fruit profile is pretty classic and what I would expect from this vineyard.
