  Contrary to many of the CT reviews for this bottling, I found this wine met/exceeded my expectations. Consumed over two days with only marginal change on day two. Classic Napa Valley cabernet displaying black fruit, cinnamon, caramel and earthy flavors along with hints of glycerin, tobacco and blueberry. Medium acidity with good structure and balance. Medium-long and lingering finish with no heat. Unfiltered, for sure, but a reasonable QPR also. Two thumbs up!

  Bottle # 3 of 3 with 1 being corked and this as the other non-corked being hardly worth of the price. Mostly chalk, with little fruit. Don't see this ever amounting to much even if held for years. Such a disappointment from such a lovely winery. Not even close to the 2014.

  Lovely dark red color. In the style of Bordeaux. Medium tannin. Hints of boysenberry, wood, Cedar. Unfiltered. Very enjoyable and can hold a number of years.

  Spicy ness, cherries, perfect for a pasta but needs more aging to tackle a steak. Medium weight on the palate.
