Fantastic, smooth cab. Unique jalapeño type finish! A bit fruity and caramely too. Delish!

A very nice Cabernet delivering it's less notable green side during the colder 2011 vintage. Reminiscent of blackberries, sweet bellpeppers, and green peppercorns.

Great classical Cabernet aromatics and flavor only when just entering mouth. Otherwise little bouquet and a very short finish.

Blah... Not much going on with this one. Nice nose, but thin on the palate. Rather green in the profile.

Husband's favorite winery. Too bad the merlot is so hard to find! I love the Cabernet even more though.

Aromas of boysenberry and dried herbs. Well balanced, firm tannins.

Good - much better than many of the cabs I've had recently. Not overwhelming
