    February 12, 2010 - This wine surprised me since I was sure i would be over the hill and I had only this one bottle left. But it was rich and somewhat sweet on the palate, still dark in color, with a pleasant nose of boysenberry pie and tobacco. Medium finish.

    October 8, 2008 - Nice light ruby color. Sweet berries. Very slight tannins. If I had more I'd drink them son. It seems the fruit is starting to fade a bit.

    January 2, 2002 - ($12) Ripe and medium-bodied with decent concentration. Distinct dusty quality intermingled with the red fruit.

    January 2, 2002 - ($26) Ripe and sweet with obvious Cabernet Franc overtones. Particular stemmy quality in the finish. Nice little wine.
