  July 29, 2018 - Nose of black cherry, red cherry, mocha, allspice, and a hint of forest floor, same on the palate, big body, very tasty, mouth filling fruit, opened slowly but steadily over two hours, paired with glazed BBQ Ribs, went well together, this was even better the second night, small amount of soft tannins present, needs three years cellar time to peak, and a long, flavorful finish. Uploaded bottle and cork photo.

  July 22, 2018 - Aromas of plum, cedar and raspberry followed by complex flavors of black cherry, mocha, and oak. This wine was one of the best bottles of Duckhorn’s Cabernets that I’ve tasted. Upside surprise for sure.

  August 14, 2016 - Pleasant, enjoyable, smooth, but not memorable. Considering there are dozens & dozens of Napa cabs and red blends in the $125 neighborhood, this does nothing to distinguish itself from a crowded field.

  March 17, 2016 - Medium bodied with notes of cherry. Pleasant drinking but I must say I was underwhelmed. It came and went - nothing memorable

  April 1, 2015 - Loads of red and dark fruit on the nose, with cassis, vanilla and hints of dust, really smooth in the mouth with lots of somewhat elegant fruit, medium persistence and length of finish
