Deep ruby color with some brick hues. Aromas of blueberry, blackberry, vanilla and chocolate. Soft tannins for this 2010.

Lots of pepper start to finish with black fruit and minerals in the background.

This is a full bodied, peppery cab at a reasonable price point.

This wine was okay. It has soft tannins with just a hint of oak. Mild flavor.

Funky, pungent, earthy, mushrooms, fresh open can of tennis balls. A love it or hate it wine. Worth pushing your pallet to give it a whirl.

Firm tannins. Medium-bodied. Dry, earthy, anti-fruit bomb. Needs a steak.

Developing aromas strong cedar. Stronger dusty tannins, decent acidity holding strong, good concentration but oak is definitely showing through strong.
