Despite the big oaky nose and softer than expected feel, this wine expresses typical fruit of dark berries and pomegranates. Although I would like some more depth and some more structure, this wine is a relative excellent buy from Napa.

I think it's better than 2010 -- pyrox. Less intense; nice and long finish; hidden oak. Very good wine.

Fairly nice stuff from Aaron Pott crew. Pretty herbal and a little muddy, but still lots of fruit and VERY indicative of what I think 2011 Cabs taste like on the upper-middle range. Priced very modestly.

2011 - very smooth tannins, definitely taste oak and fruit.
