February 22, 2019 - Still absolutely acceptable aging-wise, but not a great drink...
October 26, 2018 - First bottle opened with dinner was undrinkable (oxidized), a second was opened and only slightly better, tainted and not palatable. These should not have been cellared. Unfortunately, I have 2 more to dump down the drain.
February 25, 2015 - Open and attractive nose, good depth, sweet black fruit, spices, smoky oak, blackcurrant leaf; medium weight palate, no lack of velvety concentration, juicy, good grip of ripe phenolics, fresh, lovely balance, farmyardy touch adds character; the finish has lift and good length. Competent new world Cab, not too obvious or easy.
February 15, 2015 - Two glasses of this in an Italian restaurant in Dubai...
Good value Cabernet that shows dark fruit, and just enough of the herbal side to add complexity. There's oak, but it does not overwhelm the fruit, and overall the wine is well integrated, and pleasurable drinking as an accompaniment to what was a shockingly outstanding osso bucco.
September 17, 2014 - ordentlicher neue Welt Cab.
January 26, 2013 - Intensiv doft av mörk frukt, mandel, ceder.
Medelfyllig, måttligt stram med tydliga syror. Medellång med kryddigt slut. OK men inte mer.
