Had a 2nd time within a week. Consistent with my first tasting. Very nice Cab with the usual suspect appeal. Would make someone a nice pairing. — 7 years ago
This Pinot Noir is not as heavy or fruity as many other California Pinots and we liked it very much. Nice acidity and pretty balanced. — 7 years ago
Cranberry, strawberry, raspberry, earth, mushroom, spice and pine needles. M+ acid, m body, m- tannin. Lean, red fruit, but creamy. Balanced. M/long finish. — 9 years ago
I've tasted many vintages of this designation, particularly the 04 vintage.
The nose has a nice perfume of cherries and blueberries and dried herbs. Palette is well behaved. Tannins are pronounced, but well integrated. Alcohol at 14.2 is kept in check with the tannins and acid profile. Lovely notes of spice box, oak and black fruits. Flavors persist for ages. Great bottle! — 9 years ago

2nd favorite Wine. 2nd Fav Rioja — 9 years ago
Pretty salmon color with strawberry, raspberry, stone fruit, and a hint of floral aromas. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, and fresh with juicy strawberry, raspberry, stone fruit, and a hint of savory spice with a mineral element and a lingering finish. 14.1% alcohol. Barrel fermented in 80% stainless and 20% neutral French oak. Retail $28 — 10 years ago
