This remains one of my favorite wines. It retains all of its most important assets. Beautiful nose, well balanced fruit forward start with velvet tannins and a long finish with sprites of caramel and cotton candy, mixed with dark fruit. Last one. I'll truly miss it.

Beautiful as the day I fell in love with it. Rich fruit forward that begins by dancing on the tip of the tongue before settling into velvet cream, with blackberry and plum and a satisfying finish. It's is too bad Orin-Swift lost this magic. A real crowd pleaser.

Solid cab, fruity and balanced. Long and silky finish. Very good but short of great.
