March 29, 2013 - Cannot complain for the price, shame to see this winery gone. (Both times tasted from Magnums) Typical Napa valley styled Cab, rich and abit warm, sweet vanilla, some tannins, medium acidity and medium finish. One interesting fact is the crystallization seen on both corks. Perhaps residual sugar ?

November 22, 2012 - Drank informally, good color, black and red currant nose tinged with sweet herbs, medium weight palate of similar flavors with crisp acidity and still some tannins. Decant for sediment. Drink or hold.
