Deep Ruby red, purple edges, with aromas of dark berry fruits and an array of spices. On the palate flavors of blackberry and ripe plum with herb cedar spice and cacao notes. Fine rustic dusty tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, cedar and earthy spice.

Very nice and finess Cab. Not overwhelming with fruits with nice touch of dust and acidity.

Deep but bright, not as brooding as I expected. It’s meaty, but has a soft edge and a round finish. Lots of mocha/cocoa/coffee and some purple fruit with low acid. Good time to drink it.

Starting to come around, still too youthful to give an accurate rating. Shows a good bit of potential, though

Medium bodied with dusty Rutherford tannins, this wine, formerly called Cask, lacks the subtlety of the Scott McLeod era, but those estate Cabernet grapes are difficult to make bad wine from. Expect dark mocha cherry flavors.

Not great; way to young, will try again in few years. Right now way overpriced

Perfectly balanced Napa Cabernet, estate grown and 100% CS. The taste is classic Rutherford with mocha cherries and dusty tannins lingering on the tongue.
