Medium dry, high acidity, medium bodied. Old gold color. Flavors of yellow peach, apricot and a hint of citrus. Nose opens with petrol. As it breathes, white flowers, honey and toasted almonds. Bought at the winery. Really impressed with how well this aged. — 6 years ago
2016 vintage, drank April 2022. This wine just continues to impress. Really wish they still made it. Black and red fruit blended so perfectly. Super smooth tannins now with just the right backbone to hold the oak, vanilla, leather, minerality, and dust together. Amazing finish! One of my favorites for sure. — 4 years ago
Really pleased with this wine - citrusy with some acidity, but well-balanced. Hints of minerality but not overpowering in the least. Will definitely get again. — 5 years ago

Great wine. It does open with more big red fruit, then let it open and it goes black. Great fruit, chocolate, nice finish. — 6 years ago

Deep purple in color with a wide purplish rim.
Strong nose of blackberries, black currants, cedar, vanilla, chocolates, licorice, tobacco, mocha, light cola and black pepper.
Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with black currants, black plums, blackberries, cooked cherries, cedar, spices, licorice, vanilla, herbs, light alcohol, milk chocolates, tobacco and peppercorn.
This is a tasty Cabernet Sauvignon from california. Easy drinking, rich and extracted. Fruit forward and spicy. Showing nice complexity and feels like a Lodi Cabernet.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after an hour of airtime.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, and will also pair nicely with burgers.
