May 5, 2022 - We were all impressed with the quality and structure of this Napa Cab + Syrah blend, and the staying power of this wine (2001) was a huge surprise. Abundant fruit and plenty of Napa dust with big doses of chocolate and spices.

December 26, 2019 - Still has plenty of pure mixed wild berry; good balance and some elegance; minimal secondary notes; easy to drink at holiday dinner

November 4, 2012 - Very pleasant. Poured with the aerator. Drank half the bottle with Boeuf Bourguignon, the first evening; drank with a flank grilled on the BBQ the second evening. Perfect for the Bourguignon, pretty good with the flank.
