Out of a magnum. So what do I say about this wine?? It was fruit forward, it had depth and great weight on the palate and is the very essence of what California wine has become. It's awesome if you in a supermarket and need a great bottle for a bunch of people who don't drink a lot of wine. But once you open your eyes to what's out there you realize this is glorified grape juice and there is so much better. 92 pts. — 11 years ago
