  October 19, 2014 - We took this Magnum to Emril's New Orleans Fish House to share with friends before the Jimmy Buffett concert in Las Vegas. While the wine had considerable oak (more than I typically like) it was balanced by plenty of cool climate acidity and paired very well with the Cajun frog legs and gumbo we ate. This wine had several fans at the table and overall was rather tasty.

  May 31, 2013 - This turned out to be a very nice bottle. Opened over dinner with several friends, ranging from wine neophytes to one very experienced and wildly adventurous taster. Everyone agreed that it was nicely flavored, balanced (despite Sea Smoke's persistently high alcohol levels) and provided a fine complement to our meals. Much of the oak had moved to the background, and while there weren't the mineral notes I so admire in Burgundies, the flavors were mellow enough so as not to make the wine taste like so many California "fruit bombs".

  March 30, 2013 - Agree with all on plastic cap removal, wet cork and oakiness. Disappointing at this price point.
