P n P tableside at rest. No sed. No bricking. Good to go out of the bottle. solild new world cab. Great nose and palate, no flaws. Tannins soft and just present to give wine added structure. Our wine of the nite, in a lineup of an 83 Mond Res and an 05 Reignac. Finished half way thru dinner, left wanting for more.

Great bottle. Typical cab aromatics with cassis, dried tobacco and some mint. Bright fruit but not overripe. Balanced with savory secondary flavors. Fine dusty tannins with medium + finish and enough acidity to keep it focused.

Fruit forward blueberry, blackberry and eucalyptus flavors with soft tannins. Finish is relatively short and a bit sharp with some alcohol heat that throws off the wine's balance.

Medium purple color. Intense nose of blueberry pie and cassis. Similar flavors on the palate with some vanilla oak and roasted plums. Medium acid and chewy tannins with a long finish. Really well balanced wine and paired great with a grilled ribeye.

Big and fruity, fairly straightforward. Drank well on day one, but fell apart on day 2. I would call this a "good to serve to dinner guests" wine.

Wow, over a year since my last go-round with this one. It benefited from the time in bottle. Decanted 1 hour at a restaurant. Huge fruit on initial pop that mellowed and integrated nicely. Incredibly smooth on the palette with just enough tannic grip to hang with a very fatty pork belly dinner at Salt in Baltimore. Easy drinking, and probably could have kept decanting but for it tasting too good to just let it sit there. Good QPR.

Excellent Cab. Have been loving the Sojourn Pinots and if this cab is any indication will be thrilled with those as well.

Did not spend a lot of time with this one as it was a pre-dinner conversation before heading out. Signature blueberry nose right off the first splash into the decanter. We drank this after about an hour in the decanter - but in hindsight, I would decant it a bit longer. Blueberry nose gave way to cedar, mint and dark fruits in the mouth, with fresh acidity. I don't see the need for long-term cellaring, but I would give it …

Decanted for about an hour and a half before drinking with burgers off the grill. Aroma of black licorice, leather and dark fruits. Taste has blackberry and black cherry, pretty fruit forward with a medium amount of tannins. This seems to be drinking decently at this point, but not sure it is going to improve much over the next few years.

Very nice fruit, decent complexity, moderate finish. Very balanced.

Popped and poured, only because there wasn't a decanter in the vacation house. Definitely needed a long decant as it took a good hour in glass to blossom at all. Very tight, minty, and eucalyptus nose. Some sediment, and plenty of tannins and acid. Delicious over time, as the chocolate and blue fruits emerged, but definitely needed more air than I could give to it. Will reserve scoring until the next go-round. Ready to drink but with at least an …

Extremely pure expression of clean black and blue fruits. Blackberry, currant and blueberries. No overt oak. Nimble but full and satisfying. Still has a long life ahead. No mint or herbs or cedar - pure fruit. Some people will knock this wine as not being very complex but this is what I want in a wine - purity of fruit and a sense of place.

thought this wine lacked a bit of the intensity that i enjoyed the first time around. dark fruit on the nose and palate. developed some rounder flavors on day 2 with some chocolate hints. good bottle.

Slightly corked bottle, the other bottle of it I had I thought was a really good cab and was looking forward to this one. Have already emailed Craig and he is going to replace the bottle. They are top notch with CS.

nice bouquet of truffles, chocolate, and berries, rich, dark flavors of currants, blueberries, espresso, and cassis, reminds me of Washington Cabernet Sauvignon, flavorful, drinking well now, will hold up and evolve for at least five years

You have to let this sit for a while after you open it. On pop and pour, nothing special. As the evening wore on, this started to get really good. At the 4 hour mark... wow! I didn't taste the blueberry mentioned on the bottle. Maybe a bit of vanilla? This is a very smooth wine, even better than the '06 I drank last summer. I think patience will be rewarded if you hold on to this for another 2 …
