This is a delightful wine and a great value at $40. IMO the guidance that says this should have been consumed by 2019 is wrong. This has years left.

Nice balance and finish. Well made but not much for interest. First of 6, will be a nice Tuesday nighter for years to come. Not a fabulous QPR.

A solid all around Napa Cab with lots of life left from the bold tannic backbone.

Violeta en copa, denso y obscuro. Aromas de fruta roja obscura, vainilla y cuero. Excelente estructura y bien balanceado. Tanino sedoso. Postgusto largo. El vino es muy joven con mucha fruta dominando los sabores secundarios y terciarios pero con gran potencial de envejecimiento. Lo mejor es el precio: $35.00-$40.00.

Splash decant ... Rich and full, with some lushness, but a nice acid pop (not overwhelming, but present) and tannic backbone for structure. This struck me as very well made for a $30-$40 Cali Cab. Good QPR and not overly oaky, though it did have some very big up front fruit. Seemed like it had the stuffing to improve with time.

Drank at Goodmans Still very primary but lots of sweet velvet cassis and chocolate that will mature nicely. Need to come back in 5 years.

Dark garnet color. Scent of blackberry and leather. Robust and Lingering tannins but balanced with the fruit. Full bodied and well developed despite the young age. taste of berries, anise and oak. Ready to drink now. This is the third time I've had this wine. A good wine for the money.

- Crimsom color and aromas of mint, oak and orange blossom. It's balanced and has flavours of blackberry, oak and cloves with a medium/full body. Round texture with a medium finish - Opened and had with New York Strip Steak, portobello mushrooms and fresh salad with avocado. Nice and fresh. Opened up as the glass was exposed to air. Will repeat in the future.

Dark garnet almost black in color. Aromas of blackberry, anise, and a hint of mocha. In the mouth, balanced for the youth of this wine with blueberry, spiced oak, and a nice finish.
