  I mirror the last note's concerns. WE Found this in our cellar and was reticent about what we'd find when it was uncorked. It was splendid. Dark fruit and cassis permeates the palate. Pleasantly surprised. No doubt this was better a few years back but still drinkable and fun. Cheers.

  I was worried as it was pretty old for a California Cabernet but the cork came out beautifully and the wine was rich smooth and delicious. An absolute treat

  Retail $75. Most years this is around 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with the remainder Merlot. Wow. Scores for this on Cellar Tracker are all over the map, ranging from the 70s to the high 90s. I guess you could call it polarizing. Personally, I find it enchanting. Dark in the glass and on the nose with dark (slightly stewed) red and black fruit, a bit of mint, and cedar. The palate is tart, fruity, balanced, and frankly, delicious. I am not sure I can explain the detractors. thedrunkencyclist.com

  Mature bouquet with red and dark berries like ripe blackberries, chocolate, rose hips and some slight impressions of soy. On the palate chocolate, sweet licorice, some earth, good acidity and round tannin. Definitely at its peak or a bit past it. Still a delicious wine, but drink up.
