A decently made 22 Cabernet. To be fair, it was a hard follow after the Memento Mori.

Drinks reasonable well now but I would drink it no later than 2032.

Nice nose of red and dark fruit. I pickup creme di casis, strawberries, chocolate, and oak. Taste is consistent with nose with good acidity and nice structure. Tannins are restrained. This is a nice enjoyable, fruit forward wine. About 30% Merlot, which is where I would bet the fruit comes in. Could be nice with a number of beef and heavier sauces pork dishes. — 5 years ago

Dark fruit, cherries, anise, and tobacco on the nose. Very dry wine. Dried fig, vanilla, more dark fruits, more cherry, and chocolate. Long finish of leather and oak. Drink now. Decant for an hour. — 6 years ago

Definitely smooth! Drinks like a blend with spicey notes. Almost thought it had a % of zin or Syrah. Loved it! Great with pizza! — 6 years ago

This is an unusual blend - Cab, Merlot and Syrah - and it comes off a bit heavy handed (I tasted it blind and guessed that it was from Paso Robles). — 6 years ago

Not in any danger of going over the hill. Still generous with fruit, but developing a savory edge. Great Napa Syrah. — 8 years ago
