I lack wine vocabulary - but this was a terrific Cab, dry, delicious and good to the last drop. It was a gift from a friend - we will be shopping for another.

2011, classical yet basic and unsophisticated California CS . Deep current color, nose full of black fruits, blueberries, plums, black current, cherries and marmalade, a touch of vanilla and oak, medium body, full of cooked fruits, nice tannin but lacking a bit of acidity. Ripe finish. My score 85, drink to 2017

Excellent wine; smooth but bold at the same time. Extraordinary wine for an ordinary night.

Full bodied and filled with taste. Reminds me of a girl I knew in 1987...

Improved a lot when it opened up. Bordeaux style, well balanced, light oak, fresh herbs and berries. Very drinkable.

Dark ruby coloration. On the nose, dark berry, cocoa and leather. On the palate, full bodied, dark cherry, dark berry, chocolate, and espresso. Medium tannins. Not complex, but Nice table wine.
