March 28, 2006 - Haven't tried for several years. Has evolved to reflect a moderately complex mature cab profile. A real surprise.

September 1, 2000 - ($13) Better than first tasting, fruity, medium-full bodied and concentrated. Nose suggests dill and a touch of olive. Smooth and balanced with decent length. Not especially complex with a somewhat earthy finish. Sandy tannins? $13

December 1, 1999 - Good Price on this well extracted if overly mocha flavored wine. Great currant fruit. Possible New Year's party selection. Lots of grilled bread smells. Nose reminds me of Dean and Deluca Fig Balsamic Vinegar.
