Expressive dark red fruit with a strong foundation of polished dark tannins. Smooth finish that leads you to the next sip. Drinking it right in the middle of the vineyard that produce fit. — 4 hours ago

Fabulous price for this vintage. Tertiary nose, but still somewhat bright and forest fruit tasting. Happy bday to me! — 7 years ago

Lots of berry still left on this one. Tasted a hint of licorice still. Lovely lovely wine. I will always be impressed with how well Ben’s wines age. — 7 years ago

Bright, red fruit (cranberry and raspberry), sharp tannins, not a lot of body but pleasant fruit and gripping tannins. Could age several years still though. — 9 years ago

Sample. Medium ruby red. Beautifully layered nose with blackberries, black currants, chalk, burnt wood, and dried bark. Moderate tannins (6/10) that are well integrated but a little out of balance with the acidity in the finish. Very dark palate and rounded attack, with tobacco, spices, roasted almonds, unsweetened cocoa milk and black berries. Medium body and medium finish. Great start to this wine from the nose till the attack of the palate, then the acidity will kick in. Two options: either this wine will balance out with age or drink by 2019. — 10 years ago

Tobacco, cassis, grainy. After an hour it opened up to dried flowers and blackberries. Very nice! — 6 months ago

This Cabernet Sauvignon needs to be decanted for at least an hour. The tannins soften after an hour of breathing. Rich, dense dark berry flavors when it opens. — 3 years ago

We had the 2013 Red Mountain, Klipsun Vineyard Merlot. There were tastes of plum, blackberry, oak and chocolate. This is a smooth, fruit forward, full bodied Merlot. This is very good. — 6 years ago

Yum! But it’s a little stemmy and underwhelming for what it could be. Cherry and cola notes are evident, sweet but not as deep as it could be. — 7 years ago

1999 is drinking beautifully. Lots of fruit but the wine is soft, silky and oh so drinkable. — 7 years ago

2013. Way too young too drink but this is loaded with minerality and showing no trace of heat. — 10 years ago
