2002 vintage- best of the lot in a 2004, 2005, 2006 vertical tasting, plum and dark fruit on the nose, plums prune in the mouth... fruit was waining but still balanced enough- tannins were still properly intact- was a pleasure, thanks to my Dad for making the tasting possible — 8 years ago

my favorite vintage [2012] of this southern Oregon Bordeaux-style blend, after the '09. drinking very nicely now with medium-plus in power, good dark fruit, and balanced oak. Have drank many times on its own but overall would recommend with food... nice wine, nice price... great on the 2nd day too — 8 years ago
Excellent start to the weekend. Exactly what you want a Tempranillo to be. — 10 years ago
Surprisingly tasty sweet dessert wine. Makes great mulled wine in winter. — 7 years ago
Very tasty. Pure Merlot. It was tannic but not overpowering. A dry finish but lingered and mellowed. Color of ripe cherries and blackberries. Could drink without food and perfectly satisfied. — 7 years ago
Delicious. Very fruit forward and big-ish although with moderate tannins. I wonder if even after four years what it would taste like after another four. — 9 years ago

It is Sunday night and I have finished three rounds of shoveling snow. I have just sat down to open and enjoy the 2016 Roxy Ann Winery Single Vineyard Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon.
On the nose there is black cherry, blackberry, black plum, black currant, cedar box, menthol and earth.
On the palate I am getting good black cherry, blackberry, black plum, cedar, graphite and earth.
This wine is medium+ to full bodied with medium + acidity and medium + firm sandy tannins that lead into a long dark fruit gravelly finish. Well, besides getting 10-12 inches of snow and having to shovel several times today, the weekend has been very nice. Please stay safe and healthy and have a great week ahead.
