Opened two bottles for Thanksgiving meal. Well cellared and aired for three hours, very disappointing. Good color but no varietal flavor or distinctiveness. Not recommended.

Medium purple color, very nice balance of acidity and fruit, varietal barnyard stink with tastes of cherry and strawberry. Looking forward to tasting through remaining bottles over time, good price/quality ratio, somewhat short finish kept rating below outstanding.

Delicious cali cab, full bodied, varietal black fruit flavors, aired one hour before drinking, recommended!
