The Franciscan Napa cab is always solid at $20, but with an outstanding vintage like 2015, it really over delivers. Fruit forward but also shows some depths and complexity. Oak use is quite lavish for a wine in this price range as it spent 20 months in small French barrels with 20% new, and it shows with supple mouth feel with toffee and wood spice. But it’s not overkilled. Chewy and a bit dusty tannins. 81% Cab, 10% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec. — 8 years ago

Rich aroma, then big flavors from the start with dark cherries, chocolate, currants, followed by anise,fig, and almond. Next comes smoky tannins hanging on to the very end. — 4 years ago

Loved it. A well balanced Napa cab. Big fruit but had nice balance. Great nose. Probably gets even better w another 5+ yrs. but seemed fairly mature already. Great w ribeye. — 8 years ago

Decanted for 90 mins and was impressed. Depth of the second half of the bottle after 24 hours was even more impressive. Big range on this. Dark rich fruits and the lead is the nose as others have said. I’ll be back (yes! I wrote that before realizing what I was writing). My first experience with a Turnbull was a success. — 8 years ago
