89 points, Wine Review Online, Michael Apstein (Oct. 25, 2008): “…artful blend…grace and finesse…”
88 points, Wine Enthusiast (August 2008): "A good, rich Merlot-based Bordeaux blend. Its ripe, almost dcadent red and black currant and carob flavors are balanced with an herbal earthiness and soft, fine tannins."
Drink now or hold up to 5 years.
This wine was recently featured in The California Wine Club's wine of the month club.

There were three of us sharing the wine with dinner, when my wife went to have a second glass and found very little left she insisted in opening a second bottle. Which we had no problem in finishing off. We are lucky however as we have two more left. Definitely an excellent find by CWC, job well done.

An excellent wine! Velvet sweet berries up front with a rich plum finish. An outstanding price for this quality blend.

Both the red & white were great! I will tell my daughter this one when she is looking for a nice Christmas present for me next year.
