Expected a smidge more. Light and acidic for a napa cab. β 2 years ago
Cherries, sandalwood and white pepper on the nose. Lovely expression on the palate, with notes of red and black fruits, overripe cherries and brown sugar. Very well done - burger and wine night at Capital Grille, Paramus.

If you want Napa cab, I canβt imagine a better wine that fits the bill. I love Rutherford so this is perfect. Dust covered wild picked blackberries, cedar, some pine, a hint of dark chocolate on the nose. Palate is chocolate covered raspberries, more cedar, bit of green pepper, also white pepper, plums, dirt, and the tiny hint of candy orange. This opened up after an hour. Also improved tasting outside. Is this winery underrated because they make a lot of wine? Are the 500 dollar Napa bottles that much better or just status? β 11 days ago

An old reliable. So smooth. 2010 vintage great with steak dinner and very mellow after dinner as well. β 3 years ago
Wonderful 9 year old wine. Soft and supple and dances on the tongue. Perfect by itself. Corked it and it was skunked in 24 hrs. π£ β 3 years ago

Deep ruby color. Aromas of blackberry, raspberry, cassis and baking spices. Fantastic dark fruit flavors, mocha and molasses on the palate.
