Small production with a little Petite Sirah added and aged 17 months in French oak. Dark Ruby with aromas of sweet berry fruits and floral notes. On the palate big flavors of blackberry and cherry, almost jammy with vanilla oak, fine smooth tannins well balanced with sweet notes on the long finish.

Black currants, kirsch, shoe polish. Moderate tannin. Decent acid. Works with food which is a plus. Drink now.

2010 Lodi Cabernet! 14.99% alcohol and all you can taste is the sublime balance of dark fruit, rich coco, fresh jam, and spices to entice every sense! The name was a perfect selection for enjoying last night!

Must be a blend. 15.5%. Lacks structure, not even plush.

Used to be a bruiser of a cab, now it is smooth and silky. I never thought this wine would last this long nor have this kind of polish but I was wrong. Still very ripe stewed blackberry/raspberry flavors with a tinge of animal blood. Not real complex but is delicious with beef tenderloin and horseradish cream.

Very smooth, inoffensive without being boring. Heavy, dark, perfect balance of flavors.
