  January 24, 2024 - Absolutely still shining bright. Tons of black and dried fruit still left on this one and the color remains rather opaque. Tannins were velvety soft yet covered the mouth nicely. Medium finish with notes of white pepper and dark cocoa.

  December 3, 2023 - Very full bodied, with still vibrant fruit, good balance and a long finish. It was opened, decanted and served before our main courses arrived, and was drinking very well after just a few minutes. It held up well, even improved over the next 90 minutes. This will never be mistaken for a Grand Cru from the Medoc, but it's a fine specimen of unapologetic California Cab. It was a bargain when purchased, and seems fairly priced at current retail compared with so many Cali cabs. Plenty of life ahead. If this bottle is representative, the CT drinking window needs to be extended substantially.

  November 25, 2023 - Agree with WINIAC’s 11/25 comments.
  Overly sweet with little acid balance. Drink up.
