  Funny tasting wine. Just not up to Martin Ray standards. I have generally found all their products a very good QPR, well made and tasty products. this does not do it for me. I have 4 more bottles which will go to the Vin-Bin, as they are not worth the calories.

  A very interesting mid palate that I am having a hard time identifying. Maybe some classic cabernet vegatativeness?? Nonetheless, a very pleasant wine and good QPR. Not exactly a Ridge Monte Bello, but probably characteristic of the SC mountains.

  Licorice, vanilla, toasty oak, good acidity. Better than Martin Ray Napa… I like this Santa Cruz bottling

  Deep purple. Intense showing red and black fruits as well as vanilla and cabin log stack. Medium bodied and medium acidity. This glides easily to a well balanced finish with well integrated tannins. NI:4, FI:21, FC:8, B:4, L:4
