Vanilla! But once it calms down, good round tannins, good body, super smooth at this point, perfect for the obligatory Father’s Day steaks — 3 days ago

Excellent with just a bit of breathing, a good deal at $24 which I do not expect to see any time again soon. A good dinner wine, drunk on January 19, 2026.  — 5 months ago

Always a good value and tasty! A little more balanced and less “mulled wine” than I recall from earlier vintages. — 12 days ago

Really dark fruit and a splash of mint. To quote Led Zeppelin and the legendary @Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego , you gotta whole lotta oak, you gotta whole lotta oak 🎶

2018 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 15 minutes and 2 hours. Medium-heavy body. Polished, pretty and present. No particular component/part of the experience catapulted this into whoa territory today. 2.13.26. — 4 months ago

Over delivers! Rich and food friendly. A great companion to grilled flank steak and artichoke. If you see this bottle, don’t be put off by the reasonable price point. I would drink this again. — 17 days ago
