Thoroughly enjoyable Cab from Babcock. Opened beautifully, after decanting to reveal lush fruit forward wine with strong presence of boysenberries. Good structure and lingering soft finish...has aged well. Set off a filet mignon dinner to perfection.

Very beautiful fruit that still presents a fresh and sweet element. Good structure and enough tannin to give it backbone with the lovely fruit. Wonderful entry into the palate and velvet mouth feel. Paired well with the beef tenderloin, wild mushroom fettuccine and Delmonico potatoes for Christmas dinner.

I thought this was very tasty. It's a bit on the sweet side but in an interesting way. The structure was good and the sweetness seemed to make the fruit larger
