Top Notes For
This is a dark and extracted wine smelling of black currants, pencil lead, and floral notes such as violets. Very young, moderate grip, dark cassis berry with black cherry overtones. To me, this is prototypical mountainside Cabernet Sauvignon from Northern California. I would love to taste this in another 10 years when it settles down.

Sep 5th, 2016Always a solid wine and this one did not disappoint. It's hard to find Napa Cabs at $35 or less, so it's always good to have a few of these around

Oct 26th, 2015Tasted and bought at the winery a few years ago. Not what I remember. Hopefully other bottles will be better.
