October 17, 2016 - Delicious ripe fruit with no noticeable tannins. Long 30 seconds plus finish and excellent balance overall. This one is in its prime, waiting much longer return it to raisin juice.

July 4, 2015 - Jason Moore makes some killer wines. This cab is full, in your face, and drinking perfectly in 2015. But ignore if you prefer those earthy Bordeaux types. This one is for those who like to drive fast, Ski, eat their steaks Pittsburgh style, and play Texas hold 'em.

March 4, 2015 - This is an easy crowd-pleaser wine. Big, dark and ripe right out of the glass. Oak stays in check with a big, juicy, dark berry mid palette but just lacks that extra gear of complexity to move it up in my rating scale. The size of the wine gives it a nice long finish. I think it is drinking great now but most likely won't improve with much more time. Drink em' if you got em'.
