Still think this is one of the best values in the market. 10 years on and this wine had lots of life left. Scruffy, sundried tan bark tannins mixed with black cherry skins and pressed anise and blackberry bramble create a dark wine with lively acidity. Big fan of this wine for the price.

Absolutely top notch wine! This is as good as any Napa or Sonoma BDX blend I have every tasted. It is perfectly balanced, nice, but not overpowering fruit up front, lingering mid and back palate and really broad spectrum tannins that are really soft. Just lovely stuff. I wish I had more than 1 bottle left.

Have to concur with the other reviews -- this is an outstanding value wine. Drinks like something that is at least 3x the price. Wish I had picked up more. It's on the fruity side for a cab, plum and other dark fruit mostly. Inky dark in the glass, full mouth feel. Clean finish. Was not expecting this!
