Not a typical Bordeaux type wine, nor is it a cab variation. I grilled steak and wanted a cab with it and this was not it; this was fruity, and the more air it got, the fruitier. Almost seemed like the got their Syrah and Grenache gapes in there too.

Drank side-by-side with a 2011 Hewitt, and it was fun to compare Paso dust to Rutherford dust. Neither won for me. They each had their strengths. Denner has more fruit up front and slightly more grip. Hewitt delivered overall feel and structure. Paired delightfully with Thanksgiving Turkey and all the sides.

Real crowd-pleaser, but not what I expected from a cab-heavy BDX blend. Still very fruity, bright acidity, rich but vibrant.

Rich layers and great balance. Drinking very well right now. Some sediment, but overall an excellent wine.

Corked.
I am surprised a producer of this quality is not using screened corks.
