Still a baby, held up quite well against a St Julien and St Emilion of similar age, paired with ribeye. I feel it needs a few more years to really come together, a bit rough around the edges but the fruit is outstanding and nice long finish. Much more sophisticated than most expect from a California Bordeaux blend

Lovely little dessert wine, not too sweet, nicely balanced. Paired very nicely with a NY cheesecake. I could have convinced a couple of our dinner guests that this was a Sauternes :-)

Happy to have ten more of these, drinking very well now, lovely fruit and beautiful structure. Paired will with a ribeye. Two hour decant and I feel it needed every minute of it, was fairly close when I took a quick taste on opening, and continued to evolve in the glass even after the decant.
