This is why I have a cellar and save some bottles for ten years. Yum, yum, yum! Soft tannins, but still present and still really nice cassis fruit and other classic cabernet fruit flavors. Long finish. Did I say yum? One of the great QPRs.

Nice aromas of dark cherry, plum, some pomegranate and damp earth. Tastes more like a bordeaux, with dark fruits, baking spices, dark chocolate, some pencil lead and dirt. Medium bodied for a cali cab, with some acidity to it. PNP but took an hour to really come together. Drinking well now but should continue to develop over next 5 years or so.

Love this. Everything you want in a Napa cab. Glad to have several bottles left as it is still drinking nicely.

Very enjoyable, well balanced with smooth tannins and mid-length finish.

Excellent bottle. My last and only bottle. Mountain fruit at its finest. Outstanding especially for the $35 I paid at auction. Fantastic.
