July 22, 2023 - No bricking observed
Nose has a single attractive note of sweet tobacco
Palate is silky smooth, well integrated oak, with ripe fruit.
Decent finish showing some sweet tobacco flavors.
Not very complex but very good for what it is.
Not a “reserve” quality wine in my opinion. -

11/30/2012 (link) ***** points(Abeja Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley) Medium ruby. Draws you into the glass with layers of complexity, including cherry, cassis, dry chocolate, spice box, and light herbal notes. The palate is supple and lush, full of chewy cherry flavors that draw out across the palate. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. 100% Bacchus Block 3 (1972 planting). Aged 28 months in French oak (100% new). 165 cases produced
