Not a huge cab. Medium- bodied, beautiful fruit and balanced tannins. Delightful. Decanted through s Venturi for a few hours — 10 years ago
Had the "back" version last night, thought it quite good, saw the "red" version today at Costco, also quite good. surprisingly using a "venturi" aireator seemed to help even this less expensive bottle. — 11 years ago
In love with the new semi-dry sparkling wine at Schulze. Floral nose, with the perfect amount of fruity taste. #celebration — 11 years ago
Really glad I did a little venturi. Full of fruit, nice mouthfeel. This is a delicious Merlot/Cab Franc treat! Probably should drink within 2-3 years. — 9 years ago
2014--used Venturi and decanted 1 hour ( not ready at 40 min ). Superb, appears to be great vintage. Raspberry, Rainier Cherry, floral and quite spicy (cinnamon, clove). Beautiful long smooth finish. — 9 years ago

Dark ruby color in the glass. Venturi decanted...Slight wild game hint on the nose, roses and minerals. Light body with full flavors of black cherry, cola and spice. Perfect acidity and tannins round out a spiced smooth finish. @Failla Wines — 9 years ago
First ever Charbono and still figuring out the best way to classify and remember it. A definite smooth finish but still medium to medium high tannins, which can easily be from a young wine. Flavors on the nose were not as complex as I expected but definitely complex on the palate - but of cherry, leather, smoke and dark berries. — 9 years ago
This is one of the smoothest deep reds I've tried. Love it poured through my Venturi.

Better than the first time I tried this. Not sure if it has matured a bit or if the Venturi aerated it more. Nice stuff. — 10 years ago
Nice sharp flavor, crisp. Pairs great with food without being too heavily bodied. Notes of pepper, low tannins. — 10 years ago
