Solid, well-made Cabernet Sauvignon. Strong and bold but not overwhelming. Deep, brooding fruit. Not remarkable but a reasonable purchase at $53.

Intense but pure Cabernet fruit with impressive fine tannic and acidic structure and not too much oak

Drinking quite nicely - should go great with the filet mignon that’s on the grill!

Still needs time to soften those tannins.

Had this a while ago. Don’t recall the details except that (a) it was excellent and in a great place for drinking right now, and (b) it exhibited more depth than the Boulder Falls (which is the next posting - which was also good).

Whoa. Blackberry, blueberry, and deep red cherry. W depth. White pepper, black pepper and some cocoa powder. then some nice tannin wash. Just entering the end of it’s time as the finish is fading. Only thing better is sharing it to celebrate my son’s 12th bday w my family.

This one makes you want to drink it. Strong and spicy Cab Sav with floral notes. Elegant
