  April 25, 2011 - A very pleasurable drink although I could of just smelled it all night but what fun would that be. Wonderful Howell Mountain fruit giving tastes of cherry, currant and light smoke. Very much an old school Cabernet blend.

  August 12, 2010 - Purchased and drank while on vacation, not decanted. A lovely cabernet from nose to finish. Though quite tannic, it was subtle and balanced with its fruit, oak and pepper. Consider holding.

  May 20, 2009 - Wonderful black cherry and buttery toffee on the nose. Very smooth and rich on the palate. A great blend. The winemaker does an excellent job of blending his rich, powerful fruit with smoother fruits from the valley. Delicious.
