  Medium plus weight, with pronounced tannins. Rather Bordeaux-like on the relatively dry finish. Soft muted black fruit flavors. More time will soften the tannins, but the fruit will likely fade. Quandary.

  For me, this still remains one of the best everyday true Napa cab/winery values out there. Nice and dry with good fruit. Not overly complex but dark fruit compliments some graphite and iron flavors. Never disappoints. Drank a half case of this in 2020 and wish I had more.

  Oddly compared to other Keenan vintages I felt the 2013 fell a bit flat. I felt this for the regular Cabernet as well. Could be that it needs several more years of cellar time, but honestly I just was disappointed. It’s still a solid wine but not much difference between the reserve and the regular Cabernet.

  Meh. Tasted three times using Coravin. Tannins a bit angular. Nose of leather, a little tobacco. No black fruits.
