Young, fruit forward with some notes of cherry, moderate tanins, lightly acidic, good balance, somewhat lighter in body. Nice wine for reasonable price. — 5 years ago
Terrific blend of Petite Verdot (32%), Cab Sauv (28%), Merlot (22%) and Cab Franc (18%), VA grown grapes. Medium body, fruit (berries) and tannins with a Swisher Sweet finish. Aerate! Great solo and pairs easily. Buy me more. — 6 years ago

Loved the maturation on this bottle at nine years old: Sturdy and structured. Concentration of ripe red fruit plus plenty of phenolic verve. A fantastic representation of a masculine Virginia CF — 9 months ago

Bought this bottle 5 years ago. I really liked this wine back then but my tastes have changed a lot. I was happy that this turned out to be much more enjoyable than I thought it would. Quite nice. — 8 years ago

Usually not a big fan of white wine.. But the balance on this wine was magnificent. I had flu when i drank this so.... Don't rely on this information. Besides, I think I drank the last bottle of its kind. — 11 years ago
Uhhh, quite the mind-blowing bottle. The finesse of this build is pure class. The oak is prominent but is a Prince Charming to Cinderella’s sweet perfect vintage fruit set. Tropical and touch floral with an amazing Meyer lemon & crème brûlée finish (that is silky/long). Top shelf build :) — 4 years ago

Paradise Springs a Local winery to me developed a well balanced Cabernet that could compete with any Napa Cabernet that I currently have in my wine cellar. Hitting all the necessary smokey tannins and with deep hints of tobaccos and rich flavors of blackberry. Hints of oak seep through the richness of the wine as the dryness of the Cabernet leave and echo of desire to drink more. Truly a wonderfully rich wine for such a local winery. A delectable red for an everyday drink of sorts. — 10 years ago
