Optimus Willow Creek District Red Blend

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

Excelente balance. Great alone or with Brie, walnuts or cherries

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.
