Love this wine! Very fruit forward on the nose and pallet. Used Vinturi system to open up versus decanting. However, would recommend decanting at least an hour before enjoying.

Deep purple in color - dark fruits on the nose and very fruit forward on the pallet with a round, full finish. This is a fantastic wine at a great price!

First experience with Tobin James was the '05, so high expectations for this vintage - it did not disappoint! It's dark purple color opens to a full bouquet of the dark fruits to come. The full, rich and balanced flavor has a long smooth finish. You get plenty of early tannins as the dark fruit takes over. I think this wine will cellar well and will continue to improve over the next several years.
