Received this as a gift a few years ago, sitting behind some collectables, kinda forgot about it. Pulled it out tonight for a pop and pour and was delish. I have chugged several glasses of this juice at chain restaurants with an at best "acceptable" but with a couple of years on it the '12 is wonderful. Not anything to rush out and find by any means but surprising. Typical vanilla with mild sweetness of central coast commercial blends but has really softened to a special place for a wine of this intent. Tasty, 8/10 would totally make out with again.

Very commercial but quite enjoyable. Good acid balance and some complexity. Decent but light color and a pleasant finish.
