This is another masterful offering from the talented Mr. Bruno! It has a thick dusty tannic structure, with vibrant, dark cherry, plum and currants. There is a hint of rich mocha to the excellent lingering finish. We drank several bottles as a cocktail wine, but tonight paired it quite successfully with smoked Gouda burgers and caramelized onions. Bravo Mr. Bruno! 😺

A very impressive effort, this is RB's best wine yet. It is a big wine but not quite so thick as to taste like liquid bread. Rich mocha and dark cherry flavors abound up front, leading into a pleasant, dusty finish.

Dark, rich sour fruit. Cassis & round tannins with some afterburn solid cheap #calicab #nakedwines

Uninteresting. Yes, it tasted like a Cab and even a CA cab. But when it is labeled Napa you are hoping for a bit of flare and deeper aromas, slightly longer finish or just something to be memorable. This was ok, just not memorable.

Good. Likely might have been more distinct if I'd let it decant but really wasn't too expressive.
