This tasted a whole lot like a young Neal cab but it's 50% Sangiovese and 50% Cab.  Or so they say.  At ~$120 (the going rate..) I would not purchase this wine.

    Dark purple color; Prominent oak with dark fruit. This was a monolithic bottle tasting mostly like Cab but not giving up much. It did well with the food. Undeniable quality but if I owned some of these I might be worried that 9 years after vintage this wine had not evolved at all. Good wine. (91 pts.)
