Not very impressed with this wine. Took an hour in the decanter to get past intial toughness. Afterward, mostly laced with strong oak nose and taste. Finish was short. I am usually enamored by the regular Phelps Cab bottling, but in this case I was very disappoionted.

Big, deep red full berry. Loads of time to drink. Let sit till end of 05

6/17/05- Had this with lamb at our place with Aly and John. Perfect balance, with tons of cinnamon once it opened up. We didn't decant, but I would for an hour next time. This wine only got better in the glass and we just ran out of steam. Drink the othe Barbs any time.

great cheap cab

with FIlet mignon with a walnut gorgonzola butter

Delicious, but a little lean, at least compared to Feudi's other wines. Very nice for the price, though.

Very good, not musty though; 3 b that Frank T brought to Laura's BD party

Excellent!

Really delicious, ready to drink and enjoy now in 2006 but will even get more viscous and honeyed with age.

In 2006 the wine was excellent , but still needed some time to reach it;s full potential. Lovely nose ofbramble and sweet cherry. Red-black fruits on the palate, but finished somewhat astringent. Just give it 3 years and It will be great. Best in 2009.

Tasted pretty good with Shaun's chicken and chorizo paella

Tasted in 2006. Excellent round, soft fruits. Absolutley delicious. Will continue to improve but quite nice right now.

Fabulious length, great breed. Good grip. excellent wine!!

Very Butery - Absolutely amazing .

beter than expected, complex, opens up in glass; drink it up
