12/9/2017 - Mike Kopanski wrote: 86 pointsOn one hand, many previous vintages left me thinking this offering is often artificial and manipulated barely deserving a decent score. On the other hand it does seem to get just a little better every year. This one may be the best ever. First off, there seems to be an unwanted and unwelcome bit of residual sugar. Beyond that, we have pure fresh cherry and raspberry fruit any Pinot would be proud to display. Maybe a bit too much toasty oak. The color is more like Merlot than Pinot. Nice viscosity. Very nice moderate, enhancing tannins. Not just upfront fruit, some continuing though not overwhelming character. A bit of cocoa powder with the cherry on the finish. |

5/1/2024 - Cailles wrote: 96 points23x California 1974: Do the legendary 1974s still hold up? The answer is a resounding YES, and not just for one or two top wines, but across the board. These best wines showed incredible complexity, with still vibrant fruit cores perfectly complemented by layers upon layers of tertiary aromas, a fully intact structural frame, stature, poise, and freshness. While many of these wines should continue to age well, I don't expect them to get any better than they are now. The top wines in the tasting were the Mondavi Cabernet and the Phelps Insignia (both 97pts), the Mondavi Reserve and the Mount Eden (both 96pts), and the Ridge Monte Bello (95pts). Many more wines scored in the 90-94 point range. I'm convinced that many wines would have scored even higher in a different tasting setting, where you can follow the wine over the course of an evening. Only 5 of the 24 bottles showed signs of weakness, with 1 of those already oxidized, but given the substance that could be tasted underneath, this is more likely due to weak corks or poor storage than anything nature delivered this year. All the wines had very good fill levels and had been quickly double decanted before tasting to remove the sediment. |

4/26/2024 - Tsliwinski Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis big boy was still youthful. Decanted multiple times from 1-3 hours. It served a wedding party with plenty of strong red dark fruit, a touch of cassis and game and a silky finish. So glad to have this for my youngest daughter's wedding. |

4/13/2024 - jusuf Likes this wine: 98 pointsThis is Cab at its best. Californian power with bordelais elegance. Dominant Cassis nose with fragrance tones. Sandalwood. A bit mocha. Palate straight into a massive body with constant changing impressions. Spices, fruit, minerals and again fragrance. Cassis all over anyway. Very long finish. |
