Blockbuster cab. Layered red fruit up front and dark fruits on the back. Dense, but the tannins are integrated and smooth. Wet tobacco. Goes down easy, but demands a revelatory pause with each sip.

Blackberries, stewed raspberry, mouth coating fine tannins. Reminds me a little of a super Tuscan. Aged just 👌🏼

Happy 4th of July! Cheers to all who have served this great country.

This is a nice celebratory wine! Smells of wet rock and plums...hint of leather. On the palate...beautifully integrated tannins. Lovely structure of mixed berries. This wine is peaking. 👌

2006 vintage. Still tightly wound. Suprising acidity but lacking in overall balance. Mocha, dark berries and mint.

2012 - More old world style Cab; not bad.

Very nice, valley wine, but prefer the hillside Altruist.

Should have been really good since it's their expensive reserve bottle but bottle was leaking out of the cork when we got it so I think it was damaged by heat. Flavor was still good just a little flat
