Drank a side by side comparison of 2007 Alexandria Nicole Destiny and 2007 Mackay Duck Press Red. Both contain the same grapes, in differing percentages, with dominant Cabernet Sauvignon. Both were good. The tasters didn't identify significant differences. The wines seem ready to enjoy now.

Nose is deep black chery and cassis. Palate is full with lots of big dense fruit. Tannins still present on finish, went well with rilled rib-eye. Will be even better in another 4-5 years because it is built like a brick spit house and need lots of time to unwind.

This is a good daily drinker red blend that is smooth and well rounded. I would definitely drink/buy again.
