Taste Sterling Wines
Wines were 10 to 22 years old, held up well.
Very lovely, rich cabernet nose, same in the mouth, lovely, vibrant, ripe black berry fruit.

Great cabernet nose, big, rich cabernet, at peak, nice, long, pleasant finish, after 45 minutes, all tastes were sold out.
Nice, rich fruit, very ripe, fruit forward, easy to drink, nice, long finish, acid overwhelms the fruit, medium amount of soft tannins on the finish.
Hint of sweat sox on the nose, strong taste of very ripe fruit, big, intense, elegant but one dimensional, nice, long finish of fruit and tannin.
Stinky, sweat sox nose, deep, brilliant plum color in the glass. nice, pleasant taste, hint of sweat sox on the palate, nice, long finish.
Favorite Winery especially in the old days.
