Very nice Cabernet with a rich dark color. Black cherry with notes of tobacco and cassis. Nice tannin structure. Great sipping wine!

Mar 19th, 2023Very easy drinking. Pleasantly not too sweet. The nose is ok and light. But Babs and I finished a bottle without even noticing it. Was on sale at Costco. Would get again.

Definitely changed with breathing. First nose when opening had barnyard, 30 min later mellowed out and had darker fruit tones, mushroom, vanilla oak.

Aug 21st, 2021An excellent Cabernet from Napa. It pours a deep purple red. It has a smooth refined texture and body that I usually encounter in somewhat older wines. Flavors of blueberries and boysenberries, some vanilla, and oak. It went perfectly with prime New York steak and truffle Mac and cheese we paired it with. This was an extraordinary deal at Costco - only $20, marked down from $40. MSRP is $50. I have a second bottle that we’ll revisit in a year or so.

Black raspberries, black pepper ?, light to medium body, balance tannic finish. Opened for 30 minutes and it’s a different wine. Lighter body, more plum than black raspberry.

Paired with leg of lamb roast. Nice combination: buttery full flavor nicely complements the rich juicy tender lamb meat.
