All my scores are rolling to the center of the bed at around 95 pts, but I call it as I taste it. This is big and opulent. Very interesting which finishes super sweet and complex. My first Saxum.

#3 on the top 75 California wines you must try before you stop drinking.
Took a while to open up.
Very smooth and soft.
