Decanted for thirty minutes, excellent is all aspects. Top notch California Cab. Bought in 2005 and had know idea of the current value

Decanted and let air for 45 minutes. Served with herb crusted filet. This was a very good bottle; complex, smooth, almost decadent. Nose of black fruit, smooth on the palate with a long smooth finish. May want to pour through filter it had some sediment

Decanted briefly, some sediment so filter, poured at about 64 degrees . Lots of ripe fruit and fresh berry on the nose. Taste of dark chocolate, blackberry, leather, at lot going on. This was the last of 4 and if you have been waiting to pour it's time to drink this one. Smooth full finish of a quality wine, was enjoyed by all.

Poured with Venturi, dark garnet in color, no doubt a Tempranillo, black fruit and chocolate, is ready to drink if you have been waiting, soft mouth feel and long decadent finish.

For the money this is one great red blend. I have a couple more bottles of the 07 and stocked up on the 09.
This wine never lets you down.

I bought 2 cases of this when it came out and only have 2 bottles left, drinks like a $30+ bottle of wine. As I remember I paid $6.68 per by the case. Wish it where still around.

Had this in a vertical tasting '99-'03 was not as good as the rest, the '02 stood out as superior. Paired nicely with gilled lamp, stuffed grape leaves and such.
