This came in my club shipment. I wanted to test it out. It was solid with a little backward fruit and pretty stiff tannins (remember it is a 2011 so a little young to drink) Not all that impressive on the first night, so I let half of it sit.
It was actually better on the second night. The Cabernet fruit came through much better and balanced the tannins.
At $33.60 Vina Robles has better wines for less in my opinion. Don't plan to buy more.
