Amazing wine with steaks @ Cole Farms... Very balanced and deep layers of oak ripple through and longer on the palate. — 5 years ago
Nice legs. Rich with tannins. It needs ample time to breathe. Good with buttery steaks. — 5 years ago

My belated birthday dinner wine; had this with mesquite-grilled hangar steaks with chimichurri. A sentimental favorite winery. The nose has loads of focused cassis, graphite, dry underbrush. Classic. In the mouth, it seems young-ish still: nicely-concentrated, but with still a few elbows from the tannins and the alcohol, which haven’t quite fully integrated. The flavors are clingy, with the cassis and graphite amping up a bit from the nose and lingering. Really nice wine. — 4 years ago


Anniversary— enjoyed with ribeye steaks — 5 years ago
Color is a dark blue-purple. Dark fruit, baked blackberries and cassis are the primary aromas followed by black tea and spice with a lingering touch of eucalyptus. Still tastes a little young with some heat but mouth coating and filling the palate with blackberries, cocoa, leather, and espresso beans. A medium plus jammy finish. Will go well with our New York bone in steaks. — 2 years ago

This was a stunning wine from our cellar, enjoyed on Christmas Day 2020 to accompany Japanese wagu steaks! Beautifully balanced and velvety finish!! This vintage is 92% Cab, 7% Petite Verdot and a mere 1% Merlot. Loved it! — 5 years ago
