Huge wine. Dark at the top and the bottom. The blend seems very right for Pasa Robles. Lots of fruit, the alcohol is certainly there but wasn't as intrusive as 15.2 would seem to be. The last sips out of the glass were more bitter and acidic, perhaps suggesting to drink it up. This was a lovely wine with a venison red sauce over pasta dish and salad.

Big, well-defined palate from this finely crafted CA blend. Alcohol comes through with some foods. Surprisingly, didn't work so well with a garlicky, spicy tomato soup. Probably the tomato. I look forward to trying the rest of this tomorrow.

Not my cup of tea. Still together but the nose had high alcohol, bright flavors but not a deep or lasting finish.
