2016 Devona Cabernet Sauvignon Bacchus VineyardColumbia Valley more |
1/24/2023 - richn Likes this wine: 94 pointsA. I was surprised, quite good. Devona makes great stuff but wasn’t sure about the Cab. Didn’t disappoint and I only decanted for one hour. I enjoyed this with some Chinese food again a surprisingly good pairing. |

5/23/2020 - SARED Likes this wine: 93 points92-93 with 4 hours air. On PNP wine is too disjointed with high acidity. But opened beautifully with a couple hours of air to crystalline cool red fruit with crunchy acidity. Very happy to have more.

11/17/2008 - Dr.Scott wrote: 95 pointsI bought a case on release and mowed thru 8 bottles in the first few years. Hadn't tasted it since and was excited and expecting great things based on the amount of fruit packed into each bottle. I was not disappointed. Beautifully balanced, full bodied and better the second day after it was left just corked on the counter. One of my top '97 California Cabs which deftly avoids the high alcohol hotness which marks this vintage. I will plan to consume the last of the 3 remaining bottles no sooner than 5 years.

2/2/2021 - dclaggett wrote: 90 points13.2% abv. Dark garnet color. Modest amount of clear staining of tears. Red berries, pomegranate, eucalyptus, cedar, fresh raisins. Med weight in mouth, surprising acidity and some tannins; this still shows fairly lively in mouth (pnp, no decant), 45+ sec finish. Respectable, has more years left if stored well (my cork soft/broke on opening).

2/16/2021 - kanab ram Likes this wine: NRPurchased at a Wine Berserkers event. Intoxicating nose of raspberry jam. Red and black juicy fruit dominate and explode on the palate coating all areas of the mouth. Nice secondary notes of cedar and leather.

2008 Anderson's Conn Valley Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Estate ReserveNapa Valley more |
11/14/2014 - Wine_in_HD wrote: 91 pointsWow, can't believe my impression is so far off from RP who scored this wine a 98 and the other reviewers who have had this wine here on Cellar Tracker. First day impressions were that this is a very ordinary wine and actually a little below ordinary, an 89 for me. I have had Anderson's 2011 of this same wine and loved it. 2 hour decant, flavors seemed subdued, mouth feel was diluted and watery. It did not improve with time that evening. Don't think brett was the issue, there was no funk in the taste. A puzzler. Hopefully, the wine is going through a shut down phase and will reopen with more time in bottle. Second day, the wine was some improved with dark fruit flavors consolidating and coming forward. Second day was a 92. Overall score is a combination of the two.

4/26/2016 - SMHalps Likes this wine: 89 points2008 Napa Valley Cabernet Night (Lincoln Squre Steaks, Amsterdam Ave, New York City): This is a tough one to rate. Ultimately it was slightly disappointing with a heavy mouthfeel and notes of stewed fruit on the palate. About half of my 8 person group also felt it was very (and too much so) acidic. I wanted to love this, but ended up only liking it.

2010 Domaine Chante Cigale Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles VignesRed Rhone Blend more |
4/28/2018 - cubswinws Does not like this wine: 86 pointsSecond time to try this. Quite disappointing given its over-rating. Nose gives you hope but there is nothing much there to back it up. One lone bottle remaining. Not sure what to do... sell or bury it deep in the cellar hoping it makes a total transformation.
