Lots of oak and toast/butter for this price point. Rich in taste, though not quite a Rombaeur Very good, not great. Something bitter about it. High alcohol/good legs.

As one dimensional as they come. Golden in the glass.....not as much in the mouth. Sweet oak, vanilla and cream. Not much in terms of fruit, except for the faintest hint of roasted tropical fruits. It's not a bad wine, it's just boring. It's major crime is costing about $3-$5 more than other wines sharing the exact same profile.

Golden yellow color. Smokey oak dominates the nose and unfortunatly the taste as well. You can't even distinquish the fruit here. It's just oak. California really has learned how to ruin a wine.
