Full of power and ripe dark berry fruit. Packs a lot of punch for the money. A great everyday wine to buy by the case!

Not enough to sink but a total snoozer.

Wonderful ruby in color with a purple rim.

Fruity nose of blackberries, strawberries, cooked cherries, raspberries, earth, licorice, vanilla, wildflowers, spices, pencil lead, chocolates, smoke, spices, potpourri and peppercorn.

Full bodied with medium plus acidity and long legs.

Fruity and bone dry on the palate with blackberries, strawberries, cranberries, red currants, pomegranates, licorice, oak, vanilla, leather, green vegetables, herbs, chocolates, tobacco, spices and black pepper.

Long finish with firm tannins and black pepper.

This is an enjoyable Napa Cabernet with a nice mouthfeel, but not fully balanced yet.

Complex and interesting by itself as a sipping wine, or with food, like BBQ Meats. It has some earth notes and even less of the green notes.
Needs an hour in a decanter to open up and show some tannins.

Still young and needs 3 years in the bottle. It has nice acidity and enough tannins to carry it to its next stage.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Solid fruit forward napa cab. Ripe blend of red and black fruits with an oaky vanilla wrapping. Nice drinker without a need to wait.

Oak and fruit on the nose, medium body heavy oak flavors with a little vanilla, slight tannins.
