The nose features a gorgeous oak profile, supplemented with notes of black currant, cassis, and piercing cherry aromas after a bit of time in the glass. On the palate, the wine shows a perfect balance of plush and juicy textures, backed by flavors of plum and blueberry pie filling. With the Cabernet adding a bit of spine to the finish, this is a wine that’s just going to get more and more complex as it continues to age in bottle.

Cam Confidential
Sourced primarily from vineyards in Oakville and Rutherford (over 80% with a dollop of Spring Mountain and a dash of Atlas Peak blended in), Lot 448 is a beautifully crafted combination of very high end componentry from a number of famous Napa Vineyards where we source fruit. Featuring layers of Merlot, Cabernet, Petit Verdot, and Malbec, this final blend saw just under 40% new French oak.

Just delicious right out of the bottle. Opened two bottles at a condo board meeting, they could not get enough.

as CH notes..."perfect balance of plush and juicy" i agree!! Its more than medium and less than full body. Smooth from start to finish and slightly dry. incredible blend of cab, Merlot and others. its a standalone class with multi flavors. too unique for everyday wine and perfect for special moments. glad i bot a case.

Whats not to like with this wine. It is full body, a nice finish, and all at a great price.

Only picked up one to try, and WOW! Great flavor profile, not super bold, but still is packed with long lasting flavor.

I am not a big red wine fan. However I loved this wine! It is a great blend. I found it to be very smooth! I received this in my last wine club shipment. I liked it so much I ordered 3 more bottles!

This is a nice front with a berry finish but not sweet.
Fairly smooth and notes of currant and light oak.
