  August 3, 2022 - Still full of flavor and finish. Drinking wonderfully right now but has more years if cellared properly.

  August 3, 2020 - Decanted ~1 hour. This vintage continues to soften the edges. More than 1 year since we last had this. Classic Cab with beautiful fruit, spice and earth. Luscious finish and mild to mid tannins. Very nice bottle of wine.

  May 4, 2019 - Decanted >3 hours. Nicely matured Cab. Tannins have rounded out. Will continue to get better with time but drinking nicely right now.

  September 25, 2018 - I took the bottle from the cellar an hour before serving. After opening it we poured it in a carafe to breath. I tasted a little right after opening and caught the distinctive tannins and the plum taste. After an hour the tannins subsided and the plum and berry taste opened up. The color is a deep purple and the nose was big. The taste lingered for awhile. We had it with rib eye steak. My wife said it was good but still prefers our favorite wine, J. Lohr. She’s very loyal, but is pretty right on, although for the price, J. Lohr is way ahead.
