2004 Meeker Cabernet FrancAlexander Valley more |

Completely different than the softer, aged Silver Oak, but in a good way. Full flavored and going strong. Agree w/mmoss. Let this air before drinking. |

Maintained great nose and flavor over several hours of drinking. Producer's website shows WE 91 pt and Best of Show for Cabs at SF International Wine Competition (out of 488). And Nebraska won. Looks like I need to drink a bottle of wine every time I want Nebraska to win. Blessing or curse? If I need to do that for Chiefs' games too, I will lose my job. |

2007 Beaulieu Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherfordmore |
5/31/2014 - bzukaitis wrote: 90 pointsBeautifully drinking '07 Napa Cab. Running low on '07's. Actually have more heavy hitting '05 and '06 left, which I am not complaining about. Could have waited on this one, but would not wait too long. Maybe 6-18 months. I can picture those not big on oak not liking as much. Keeps getting better the longer its open. |
