Trader Joe's
Platinum Reserve Yountville Cabernet Sauvignon
Blackberry, vanilla bean, cedar, cola, and overwhelming sweet mocha/lumberyard that eventually subsides. Solid overall intensity and balance.

Dec 16th, 2015Big nose. Big, fruit forward wine. Still plummy and raisiny. Still holding up well unlike a lit of the other Platinums. Was a terrific value. My last bottle.
