A pleasant, versatile wine with lovely fruit on the attack and mild tannins. Not especially complex and only moderate length on the finish, but with no off-notes or unpleasant vegetal notes either. This wine is enjoyable, easy drinking and shows promise but ultimately falls short of Napa's great cabs. A great everyday wine, but only at the right price. The retail price for this wine is more appropriately $15-$25, not $50+.

Winery Tastings, October 2010; 10/22/2010-10/25/2010 (Mt. Veeder, Oakville, Spring Mountain, St. Helena, Calistoga, Napa): Lacks identity, especially considering the wines being made by their neighbors. I would call it a dusty everyday cab.
