March 20, 2021 - Tasted alongside the 2009, blind. The nose on this wine was more complex at the outset: dark cherry, light leather. However, a bit of VA was there too. The palate was bright and less ripe that the 2008, and this was the better wine. Nice fruit, no sign of fading. Sad that this winery is gone...they made great wine.

July 6, 2015 - Giving this an 85 instead of lower because others at the table enjoyed it. All i tasted was prune.

This is a winner in every category and sang for us. Classic Cab features with perfect balance and unobtrusive wood treatment.
Only lament is a lack of distinctiveness.
Has plenty of life left. Drink now or hold.
