Nice bottle, drinking really well. Black/purple fruit profile. (Drank out of a plastic cup, so no aromatic notes.) Tannins are still quite strong and acid is med/low, but should hold up for a few years to come. I was really pleasantly surprised by this one. 91-92

Wine shows promise with a gorgeous bouquet. Palate is borderline unbearable as the wine has been completely smothered in american oak. Caramel and toffee abound, with a harsh finish. I don't ever see this one turning around.

Haven't had a bottle in a year and time has definitely improved the wine. Very nice.

A fairly straightforward cabernet with a light smoky cassis, black cherry, and a bit of leather. Ultimately, this is overpriced ($20) for the effort.
