I finally bulk-imported my wine list and this came up #1 in my Drinkability report. This was a pleasant and smooth Cali-cab but was dominated too much by the toasted oak vanilla taste. This compares very favorably with the 2002 Sebastiani cab that is ½ the price. It is hard to detect any real fruit beyond the vanilla taste. However, the tannins are smooth and this is very easy to drink and is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

Drink up now to enjoy a wine that is mature and still holding very nice flavor, mature fruit and a flavorful finish.

Sweet floral tones dominant. Vanilla and oak are just too much for this otherwise smooth cab. Short to decent finish. Not my type of wine.
