Fading a little, drink now. Good cab flavors and some merlot. Cinnamon and tart berry and some plum. Some acidity. Medium body. Improving a little as I let it air for 30 minutes. Will complement filet. Hoped for better after 7 years cellaring but Paso / SB cabs don't start with the character of Napa cabs and probably fade fast.

Similar review to last time- fruit was a little more there this time. Wine is starting to fade- drink up over the next couple of years. Very easy drinking smooth wine.

A decent Paso Bordeaux blend. Tasted spice, pepper and smoke. The fruit was not coming foward- hints or blackberry. The pepper and smoke came through more and carried through the finish. Not a bad blend for the price.

lots of aroma. dark fruit. very rich. almost to rich to drink a whole glass, lays heaving in the stomach. but good. Needs an acidy/spicy meal or something. Something that did not have a lot of fat with it. Like mexican encheladas or taco cassarol or tacos.

Very different than the last bottle. More medium body. Refreshing.
Not dense and syrupy like the last bottle.
