April 27, 2013 - Just a good quality Napa wine at a very reasonable price ... you won't be amazed by it, but neither will you find it offensive in any way. It's just good drinking.

November 25, 2012 - Considering the range of Bordeaux blends produced this side of the Atlantic, this isn't a bad effort. It's excessively oaked (they say 20 months) and overripe, but so are a lot of these wines. If you like this style, it's a decent buy for $13, but I expect many will find the fruit and oak a little too sweet and overdone.
