Honorable and pleasant 90% cab 10% merlot. I’d get to that vintage to drink now

This wine has a floral, almost perfumed nose. Flavors of dried fruit, plums and just a little oak. The finish has excellent tannins as other reviewers have noted. Some earth and maybe some herbs on the finish. Opened this excellent bottle to honor my dad who just passed away. He had a passion for good steaks - we’re having grass fed ribeyes - and good wine. He would have loved this. Definitely a re-buy. On line the average price is about $40.

Needs a good decant. At least 2-3 hours to open up. Fruit is just starting to take a backseat and more floral/earth coming to the forefront.

Meh. Flat, light bodied, boring. Not my cup of tea.

Tannins are just about smoothing out as it’s entering its drinking window. Fruit takes a backseat to the earth and vegetal notes. Nice floral quality as well. Crazy good value.

Yum! We loved it. Will buy more. Bought at Costco. Enjoyed with a fine home made beef stew.

Super young - took a few hours to decant, but amazing structure. Berries, cherry on the front, smooth almost herbaceous in the mid and leather, with tannic overtones (no heat, though) on the back. Super structured and will last for years to come!
