This is a big Rich wine that goes with something big; steak, prime rib, etc. Open it and let it breathe for an hour or two don't be in a rush.

From the sadly maligned 2011 vintage, this is one pretty wine. I'll suffer through it somehow.

To call this Big & Bold is an understatement, more like HUGE. I love what Orin Swift is doing in Napa. Tobacco, fig, chocolate, espresso, plum - this has something for everyone. ENJOY!

This is probably our favorite orin swift blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, merlot, petit verdot and Malbec. Aroma starts with cinnamon and baked apples then a rich complex flavor of dark cherries and plums and chocolate with a smooth finish

Big bursting bottle or jam. Loved it with skirt steak and Japanese yams.
