This wine has really calmed down in a year. Relaxed feel with dark cherry and some tobacco coming through. Still full bodied, just a little more developed. I find this more enjoyable now, or has my palate changed?

Very nice weekday Cab. Opened an hour before consuming. Dusty black fruit, smoke, good acid, nicely balance albeit simple. Easy to drink, easy to enjoy. Good QPR at the state monopoly store pricing of $20.

Dark aromas of blackberry and blueberry. Full bodied flavors of dark berries with smokey cedar. A big wine, if you're looking for structure and finesse, please look elsewhere.

PNP alongside the ’07 Vezer Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Special Reserve Suisun Valley. Very subdued nose of dirty barnyard. Palate full of sweet fruit and oak with some backbone. Finish seemed a bit thin and short. Evolved over the course dinner and came together nicely. Another solid value for twenty bones.
Ended up the evening with a glass of ’82 Château Gruaud Larose which blew both of the Napa cabs away. But that was not unexpected.

A light Pinot - easy to drink and enjoy. Not much complexity.
