Dang this is drinking well. Subdued fruity nose and rich purple color. Great balance with spice and tons of black fruit. Tempted to say hold but not too long so one can enjoy the fruits — a month ago

Perfect deep garnet color. Fruit way too subdued for a 2019. Nose was flat. Jordan is a tried and true California cab. But this bottle was not a good showing for the $56 bucks at Costco. Just a nice red wine. Sorry — 4 months ago

Dang nice wine. Subdued on the nose. Pretty garnet color. Incredible full mouthfeel with loam leather a hint of raspberry but more like boysenberry or black raspberry. My vote is drink now or soon. Pairing with Copper River salmon wild rice and crispy salad. — a year ago

Inky opaque purple. Jammy dark fruit nose. Subdued alcohol. Delicious boysenberry and black raspberry. Supple tannins. Seeking a bit of spiciness but not present at first few gulps. Love this wine. Wish I had more than a couple. Low acidity suggests drink now or soon before fruit is gone. — 3 months ago

Dang, this high alcohol ripe fruit wine has really held up in the decade since bottling. The nose is subdued in terms of fruitiness compared to younger wines yet the layers of rich black fruit leather and spice come through as the wine opens up. Suggest opening and enjoying soon. — 9 months ago

Deep garnet color with a hint of brick. Leather and black cherry on the nose very subdued alcohol. Earthy notes at first then dried orange peel dried montmorancy cherry leather and a bit of smoke. Have one more in the cellar which I will wait 2-5years to open. Thanks to Eric Brown for recommending this lovely cab franc — a year ago

Rich dark purple nearly opaque. Threw a lot of sediment which I like. Great dark fruits flint leather and supple tannins. Drink now or soon so the fruit doesn’t fade. Really enjoyed this wine. — 3 months ago

Bright garnet color with a hint of brick. Tar and ripe fruit on the nose. A bit of alcohol may be due to warm serving temperatures. A very affordable and approachable Barolo. Enjoyed with herbed roast chicken and root vegetables. Buy and drink soon. — 5 months ago

Deep ruby and opaque with suspended sediment. Delicious rich nose of ripe jammy fruit and alcohol. Opened in December 2023 and last glass in April 2024. Fascinating blend of dark fruits caramel and vanilla. Amazing example of a vintage of the previous century. Drink now — a year ago
