    January 15, 2023 - This has seriously opened up….still has that over extracted flavor profile but seems a little more….refined? Not a killer but I will call it better - marginally - then the last bottle almost 9 years ago to the date! My friends who have not tasted top level cali cab will love this…90…

    July 16, 2018 - LOTS of fruit. Decanted 2 hours and no heat. Very enjoyable but one dimensional. reminded me of a blueberry pie.

    November 24, 2016 - Hugely extracted cab. Huge nose, and lots of fruit. Well integrated tannins. Very nice mouthfeel with a strong mid-palate. Long finish.

    September 14, 2016 - I really enjoyed this wine. Lots of sweet fruit and fairly extracted which I know may be a negative to some but I liked. My only issue is, unlike other reviewers, this was pretty hot - no hiding the 15.4% alcohol. It did blow off over time though.

    September 4, 2016 - Popped and decanted, but poured less than 15 minutes later. Huge nose, lots of fruit and spices. Well integrated tannins, lots of dark fruits. However, you can tell this was made by some CA PN guys, very extracted and forward. Still, I loved it and the ladies my wife had over for dinner thought is was "a very sensual wine."
