love love. At Cactus Club — 10 years ago
I like this cab, albeit a bit hot (exceeds my no >13,5 general rule). It tracks classic CA cab with nice spice, wood, and red fruit on the nose, followed by a similar front mouth affect that then coats and clings as it dangles and dazzles in its silky slide leaving one thinking - have another hit. Perhaps equally as important is where I am (Cactus in Kailua) with gorgeous Branda serving me bottomless ceviche (world class) and pouring this fine wine... Aloha! — 10 years ago
Well-balanced sweetness, cactus-like herbaceousness, a touch of smoke, and some savory nutty tones. — 10 years ago
This 2011 supported a great variety of flavors ranging from apple cider and bruised pear to a slight earthy element. The nose was abundant with honeysuckle and even a cactus suggestion. — 10 years ago

Cactus wax. Rich yellow sunshine tone. Spicy sweet floral figs. Cigarillo smoke. Anchovy, in the best salty umami sense. Bay and decomposing eucalyptus. Oily sweet richness to acid. Flinty minerals. Pickles (dill & shallots) and schmaltz richness. Captivating. — 12 years ago
