Solid Cab, but nothing flashy, not sure if this is built for long haul but pleasurable every day drinker and very good QPR.

Solid and still long life ahead. Dark and brooding until it opened up after about an hour. Dense black and blue fruits, heavy weight, and fully integrated tannins. Give it plenty of air, and on hindsight this would be a good candidate for a Vinturi or other aeration device.

Complete, delicious, high yum factor. Fantastic bouquet of cassis and violet, medium body, with coating mouthfeel and smooth, smooth finish. Tannins are still prominent but not offensive. This wine has stuffing to last decades, wish I has more. But very glad to drink and savor this one now. Paired with smoked tri-tip and garlic potatoes and carrots. Really singing.

In a fantastic spot. Light on its feet, hint of Rocks funk, and exceptionally smooth and easy to drink. Elegant and delicious.

Solid, smooth rose, with big fruit pomegranate, subtle florals, and a crisp finish. Not as tart as I expected, but likely to be gone quickly once the heat of summer gets here.

Very nice, balanced with good minerality, crisp finish, lime, peach, seashell. My first successful dN white wine and wish I had more. Drank 2 bottles with a small group this time beside a pasta primavera.

17th anniversary wine. This bottle was a bit faded but very drinkable. Holding its own 20 years past vintage. 1 bottle left which we'll save for a while.

Too young, and I hope it comes around, but this was not an impressive wine. A bit hollow in the middle and not much going on anywhere else on the palate either. I'm hesitant to score, but I did assign where I see it now. Can only improve with time... I hope.

Solid, but not as impressive as previous. Fruit is a bit muted and overall low energy, maybe in a bit of a closed off era. Will try again in a few months.

Still solid with dark core of black tar, fruit is muted but pleasant, finish in long, and really nice. This wine needed to be drank now/soon as it's on the back side of peak but still really good. My last bottle.

Light garnet, a bit thin on the palate, pleasant, but not enough there there. Will lay down for a while to see how it evolves.

Seems to be fading a bit. Light in structure, flavor profile took a good while to come around. Will drink another again soon to check in, particularly since I have overlap from previous BD purchase plus just added a few more.
