Big and bold yet soft velvet on your tongue. Beautiful texture and great fruit.

2010. Big wine, but it was really balanced and was a perfect pairing to a grilled bacon-wrapped steak.

Very smooth and balanced. Nice on its own, can see what it brings to the table when blended with Cab Sav.

So disappointing. Never opened up. First night thought it might be turning- let decant overnight and, while slightly better, still unenjoyable for any of us. Way too expensive for this let-down.

Deep dark color and long lasting dark fruit finish. Excellent texture - love that chalky finish feeling.
