Deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruits, cigar box, lavender and cedar scents. On the palate flavors of black cherry, plum and currants with cacao, floral and oaky notes. Fine dusty tannins, long finish ending with fruit, floral, oak and earthy mineral character. Very Nice! Good now but wait about 6 years!! Tasting Sample from restaurant friends!! — 3 months ago
Thought we had the last bottle a year ago but realized we had one more. Really very nice - a sort of time capsule wine, taking you back nearly two decades with the depth of amber color and honeyed flavor. So well balanced, with the secondary round fruit giving way to nice acids (more than I recall on the bottle a year ago). Fun one for sure. — a month ago
Super tannic and long finish. Dark color, so much oak it has to be decanted — a month ago
Fairly typical Sonoma County #cabernetsauvignon impressions on the nose, brambly fruit, touch of earth. Notably more dusty fruit on the palate, decent acidity considering how hot that year was. Less of a jam bomb so this #alexandervalley Cab was pretty enjoyable to me. — 21 days ago

Spectacular! Luscious! Full-bodied! Dark chocolate on the nose. Dark cherries, currants, blackberries, mocha, mint, a bit of vanilla, blueberries, and oak. Warm, lingering finish. Decanted for about two-and-a-half hours. — 3 months ago
