Forrest floor and dark red fruit. Earthy. Very good wine. Needs a few years to soften.

Like it but don’t love it, and for the price I should love it.

Nov 6th, 2017Had been saving this magnum for a special occasion and tonight was perfect. Bbq with good friends and good music...the way wine should be enjoyed. Nice lean Cab with some secondary notes shining through over the course of the 4 hours it was opened. That last sip was fantastic...kept getting better than the previous one.

Jun 10th, 2017Had to decant it for 2.5 hours and was rewarded for my patience! Aromas of bing cherry wrapped in vanilla and flavors of creme brulee topped with blueberry compote. Contuned to get better and more approachable over the next 2 hours. Great effort from Aaron Pott and Elizabeth Tagney. 99% Cab Sauv 1% P.V.

Blackberry, cassis, black cherry, vanilla, licorice, mint and oak. Excellent structure and velvety tannins.

More chocolate on nose and palate. Amazingly silky and refined palate. Great depth of flavor and polish.

Classic California steak wine. Intense red fruit but not much else. Smooth and elegant wine that is perfect do with steak but not much else. Good value under $70.

Young but great! First time trying this wine/winery. Will be much better with additional aging.
