Very muted nose and body, still a lot of tannins. Maybe a long decant will help or a couple of more years. Usually this wine is a great value, but this year is a complete miss.

Super muted...especially the fruit. Bought this a couple years back, figuring it would sit, mellow and get better - maybe even be GREAT! Alas, it is not to be. This wine seems over. I don't see a path to greatness here.

Medium body and medium tannins, with a surprising amount of acidity that made the wine feel almost sour. Left the glass alone for about 10-15 minutes, and after aeration you can taste the standard flavors of a Napa Cab.

Nice enough but flavors are more tart than balanced.

Agree with the other reviews. Its just a wine, started spicy then just sat in the fridge. Have had better at this price point
