Tried for first time from recommendation. Veuve fans traditionally, but this is more elegant and light. Definitely a get laid rose. Light pink in color. Excellent.

A little too weak on the palate. Dissapointing given its appearance (jet black) which had me really excited.

Will hold the other 3 bottles for two more years before trying again. Great wine for the money.

Nose of urine. Wine actually is much better than the nose of it, but still pretty tough to get this one down.

Monster. Going to be very good in a few years. Not touching my others until then.

This is an amazing wine. Will put the others away for at leat another year before having another. So much aging potential but also fabulous right now. If you can actually get your hands on this one, get as much as you can. It will be a cult wine within the next vintage.

Mature with big citrus notes. Very very smooth. Had a double magnum for the wife's birthday dinner with 12 people. Perfect amount. JJ Buckley still has it in stock. Worth it for a special occasion.

Very smooth Merlot. Plum comes through all the way. Wife loves it because the alcohol doesn't show much in this wine.

Very good Shiraz. Big alcohol with a balanced level of fruit flavors. Paired very well with roasted chicken and carrots. Worth the $50 I paid.

Very solid red with a good price tag. Lots of blackberry on the nose and tongue. Very Dry.

Medium body and very smooth. Not as big as one would want from a high price cab, but still very good wine to enjoy with a nice meal.

This wine is massive! Unreal nose with a finish full of fruit that lasts forever. Best wine I have ever had.

Had with baked fish and veggies. Very smooth with great fruit on the nose and the palate. This is a very solid Napa cab. Wife who doesn't drink much red is all about this one, so that should say it all.

Getting a little better with age.

Good wine but this needs to age for another year or so. The 2005 is much better at this point.

It is a solid Bordeaux that is a good value. Nose is pretty light with some fruit. Taste is fine for everyday drinking with a smooth finish. Not a whole lot of complexity at all. Get it around 20 bucks and you won't feel bad about it.

You cannot beat this NV rose for the money. So much flavor and fruit right out of the bottle. Strawberry everywhere.

This wine is excellent. Much better than the standard Caymus which is the same price. If you want a $70 cali cab that will impress, get this one.

This wine hands down could be the best value for the dollar. If you pick this thing up for under 30 bucks, you have a steal. Decant it for about an hour and get ready to enjoy large fruit forward flavors exploding in your mouth. Very big body that goes down smooth and can be paired with almost any meal. I have grabbed up as much as I can at this point for my cellar.

I have had this 03 about 5 times now and there is only bit of valuable info I can relay to everyone: there is not as much large body associated with the 03 as with the 05 or 06. I prefer more tannic/alcohol flavor on the tongue with a wine like this, so for me these 03s are a little too aged.
