Dec 27th, 2023So very good, my son turned 21 and we had held this bottle from release until now. Was it worth it? Damn right it was @Garen Staglin a wonderful example of why I love your Cabernet. So smooth silky tannins aged by time to a perfect balance. Dark rose and stone fruit mixed in with smoke leather and a little earth. This wine just got better and better as it opened. Considering it was his 21st birthday at home in quarantine we couldn’t have asked for more.

Jan 10th, 2016Nuanced relatively subtle nose displaying the earthier elements which are a knock out on the palate. Great story of bright red fruit/cassis and cranberry knitting into the earthy, tarry notes - powerful spice with still firm tannin prolong an impressive finish. Wow.
