Solid wine with nice fruit. Blackberry. Nice suave finish- not overpowering.

Surprise of the holiday season. Bright fruit, big tannins. Oak a little heavy put pretty damn good for a 10 year old $25 wine. Sippin it hard.

Lovely garnet color. Fruit and spice and vanilla on the nose. Soft tannins with a lingering finish. A very nice, inexpensive wine. I'm sad to say the last bottle from the case. I believe it's really reaching its full potential now.

Loved this 2007 napa cab. Deep, dark fruit, medium to full body, great flavor. Better after 15 minutes in the air.

A must have. Dry, blackberry plus fruits I cannot describe. Some oak in the tasting. A must buy.

Intense tannins that, to my taste, overpower other qualities. Even with time out of the bottle, this wine did not open up. Exceptionality tight - perhaps even "hard" - is a good characterization. Certainly don't look for anything lush here.
