Showing very well right now. Deep garnet in the glass. Nose of raspberry and vanilla. Full-bodied, fruit forward palate yields black raspberry, cassis, and light vanilla oak. Medium acidity and medium plus tannins make for a fine food wine, though just bright enough for a sipper (for some). An excellent, lighter option for when its son, Cab Sauvignon, is too heavy. Take it anywhere you’d take Bordeaux or California Pinot Noir. Now if only we can get Brian Graham to make more. Drink now through 2026. — 7 years ago

This limited production (49 cases) wine is a power house. A lot of structure and depth! — 9 years ago

Grilled meat and peppers, celery, searing oak, and blackberry compote with mouth drying tannin. Some secondary earth and tobacco rounds this out. Certainly not worth the $65 list, but not a bad buy at under $30. — 10 years ago

More restrained flavor profile than the J. Garrett. Cedar and graphite nose, with dark plum spice on the palate...tannins grab hold at the end and dont let go for just long enough to think about it and take another drink... — 12 years ago
