The nose on this gives off an impression of zinfandel, jammy and peppery red and black fruits dominate. The palate compares abd goes well with the charred mid-rare filet I had. I say 8.9 because it's a damn good value for a Paso cab, or really any cab for that manner. — 9 years ago
So dry it's almost salty, this was bready and had cracker-like crunch to it, with a cider-like note, and no sort of cheesy funk. Paired with a green olive, transformed into green apple juice...I want this as an aperitif at my next meal! — 10 years ago

'01, kind of shocking grocery store find. Mocha, licorice, spice and a little bbq smoke. Some black and blueberry hanging in there. Very good. What was it like in '10? — 8 years ago
Insane fruit forward Jamminess, but super tight until about an hour in. Let it sit, and it's a treat for an aged marbled steak. Delicious for the price at Whole Foods $19.99 — 8 years ago

I always have enjoyed the wines of Hartley Ostini. Found this today for $16.99. What a bargain. Dark cherry turning to strawberry finishing about an hour and a half later with balanced spice and dark fruit. Beautiful wine. Caution: you may want more than one bottle. — 10 years ago
