    April 20, 2020 - Well past its prime but still has good basic flavors with a touch of age. Medium body with a short but smooth finish

    November 22, 2013 - This bottle was good but a bit tired. Fruit flavors were nice and full but the oak that I remember from past bottles was light and too understated to enhance the balance. It lacked much of a lingering finish. A day later it was going down hill big time

    March 26, 2011 - Is there fruit in this wine? Dark in color, light on the nose. Nose smells oaky. Dry and mildly sour. Dry finish. No need to get again...ever.

    March 23, 2011 - Luscious and full. Great value.

    December 24, 2010 - Dusty dark berry, coffee, mocha. Good structure and decent balance. Not special but, like all CC bottlings I've had, a solid well-made wine that's a fine everyday drinker. The next level beyond the Two Vines and Grand Estates designations.
