April 26, 2024 - Yeech. Overextracted and terrible. Had half a glass, and poured the rest down the sink.
December 5, 2023 - A good California Cabernet, but nothing spectacular. Typical notes of blackberry, casis and red fruits. The finish is moderate with some tannin, but overall it is a plush wine. Also 13.3 percent alcohol is nice to see.
April 26, 2023 - Black currant and smelling just a touch cheap on the nose. But with a little more oak and richness on the mid palate. Soft and full and round.
April 1, 2023 - Pretty tasty
March 9, 2023 - Beautiful clear garnet in the glass. Spice, light oak, eucalyptus & cassis on the nose. Palate is cedar and lingering dried tart cherries. Not jammy at all. It's a bit hot, but great lingering flavor, medium body, nice legs.
December 27, 2022 - Excellent. Dark color, berries and and a little spice and cassis on the nose. On the palate there is a bit of oak, more dark fruit, excellent depth and some complexity. Very good balance, with just a bit of acidity and unresolved tannins. Long finish. Dry, and not jammy in the least. Another very good example of a Cali Cab just coming into its own. Will probably improve over the next couple of years; has enough stuffing to cellar for a while. Highly recommend.
November 10, 2022 - Fun black currant fruit to the nose. A bit more savory and cedary on the palate. And a bit hot. But everything is kinda hot today. Soft but not too soft.
October 22, 2022 - Very light, not very Cabernet Sauvignon like. Got worse the longer it was open. Will not buy again
August 2, 2022 - Smooth, deep, elegant and satisfying. Outstanding example of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon.
