Optimus Willow Creek District Red Blend

Powerful Syrah and cab blend. Great balance. Very good. Long finish.

Syrah, cab sav, petit verdot. Paso. Excellent.

Never had it, but now a fan. Silky smooth and opens to a wonderful warm red. Loved it

It is rich, but without chaos and exaggeration. Dark fruit: mainly black currant, some plum. Then: cocoa, a bit vanilla and smoky. It stings lips and tongue with pepper.

This punches above its weight class. Having had the estate cuvée and cote bottles, this feels a peer. Big deep fruits. Smooth all the way through. Loved it

Good! US CS. Vanilla. Blackberry. Spicy and dry. Syrah 57%, CS 31a%. Silky tanning, Smooth. Fruity. 2019 @1900, chateau -, 230418-230429

Lovely

Need to breathe but feels luscious and silky smooth

Great burger 🍔 wine on a Thursday night.
I prefer this over several of their high end double the price bottles.

A normal blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petite Sirah, and 10% Syrah, the 2018 Optimus reveals a deep purple color as well as beautiful notes of crème de cassis, black licorice, tobacco, chocolate, and a rocky, earthy minerality. It's rich and medium to full-bodied, with beautiful purity and silky tannins. This is a terrific introduction into the wines of l'Aventure and will drink well for over a decade.

I need to buy this every year, the Cabernet in the blend makes the bottle stand out
