Quintessential Napa cab. Black cherry and red fruits. Hints of licorice with dusty tannin. Should hold up a while longer but it's drinking great now with a short decant

Much better than previous bottles! Resembles a true cab much more than other bottles. Not quite sure why the large bottle variability. Great dinner, great friends, great wine, and great evening out!!!!

Even better than first bottle. Dense and dusty, filled with ripe plums and some cherries, with a hint of butter and some grape jam. A little acidity, a little citrus.

Can't believe they label this as a Cab! Extremely fruit forward and sweet, and much closer to a Pinot. Not horrible to drink, but not what I was expecting. Anyone want my last bottle?:)

Layers of anise, cedar, blackberry, & chocolate. A plush, full bodied cab with nice balance and complexity that is drinking well now and will for several years. Anyone have a char-broiled rib-eye??

Another bargain at the Pennsylvania state store, selling for $45 a bottle. Sweet and ripe, with good balance and no tartness. Plums and even some honey. A great CA cab.

Decanted about an hour before tasting. Lots of sediment in the bottle. Nose was full of plum. Overall, this wine lacked finesse, and the brighter, livelier notes seemed to be missing.

Not bad, but didn't meet expectations. Could be because of what we ate with it, but too high in OH and wasn't very refined. Short finish too.

Phenomenal Cab - big body, silky smooth with no bite whatsoever. Will buy more.
