More structure and tannin than stagecoach. — 5 years ago
Bordeaux style red blend that includes Merlot, (76%), Cabernet Sauvignon (12%), Cabernet Franc (3%), Malbec (2%) and Petite Verdot (7%). Dark purple/black color. Aromas of dark fruit, dried rose petals, lavender and wet stones. Flavors of black cherry, blueberry, black plums, coffee, dark (bitter) chocolate, vanilla and roasted herbs. Long (but slightly bitter) finish, creamy texture and fine grained tannins. Nice oak integration with a solid punch of acidity. Fruit forward, plush and opulent.

Peach, mango, full body balanced by bright acidity. Not a lot getting in the way here. — 4 years ago
Delicious and easy to drink red. I get notes of cola and cherry. Paired very well with Neapolitan pizza — 5 years ago
Very full body. Red fruits and earth. Persistent finish. I think will be better tomorrow. — a year ago

Loads of complexity to this Cab. Red and black berries with a nice mouthfeel. Tannins soften after a good decant. — 25 days ago
