Absolutely phenomenal !!!

Light red fruit and structure that paired perfectly with our rosemary chicken dinner and it continued to get better throughout dinner.

Bravo Smith Story !!! I can’t wait to drink the other bottle 🍷🍷🍷

Feels like the timing for this bottle is ideal and at its peak. Deep dark fruit, extremely soft and a great compliment to grilled New Yorks this late in the fall.

Decanted for about 90 minutes to accompany our amazing ribeyes, Neither disappointed 😋 !!!

After having them in my cellar for 10 years, I was not disappointed. The dark fruit came though incredibly along with a slight presence of tannins that made this meal amazing from top to bottom.

I have three more bottles left and I look forward to and hope that the last three are as good as this one.

I can see this wine lasting for another year but I don’t know that I want to tempt fate.

Is at its peak and being enjoyed on its own before dinner and then with dinner. Deep garnet color, full bodied dark fruit and a silky smooth mid palate and finish. I’m so glad I have two more.

2006 Elyse Cabernet Sauvignon Tietjen Vineyard

Napa Valley more

Had with porterhouse and it complemented quite well and even better with dark chocolate vanilla caramels for desert.

Lots of dark fruit - black cherry and blackberry on the nose. Very soft tannins with cherry and a hint of tobacco with a peppery finish.

Highly recommended and can't wait for the appropriate occasion to consume the last of these in my cellar.

Deep rich dark color with nice soft tannins and healthy dose of dark fruit and a silky finish. It was the perfect wine for to go with blackened ribeyes.

Drink on date recommended was 2016, but it was excellent tonight.

I liked it except it was on its way down from peak enjoyment and lacked the structure of the rest.

The timing and occasion worked out perfect. The tannins softened to perfection to accompany nice red fruit and vanilla. I wish I'd saved more from the past.

2010 Decoy Red Wine

Napa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more

Nice nose of dark fruit, somewhat surprised by how smooth it was right out of the bottle. Perfect answer to a long hard day. Nice black and red fruit up front but it was a bit thin and although pleasant, I agree with a previous reviewer who noted a weak finish. All in all, a good daily wine that hit the spot.

Previous reviews spot on and helped to decide to enjoy it with Thai food. I didn't get as much of the floral although it was there. The subtle flavors of pear, lemon and apple were a great compliment to the meal. Nice acidity and I agree with the body being light to medium. I have one more bottle which will go nicely with a meal at the end of the Summer.

Consumed with Short Ribs, perfect compliment with nice dark fruit. Seemed to be at or around its peak. I only wish I had more as this was one of my favorite Pinot's I've had. Looking forward to other vintages, hoping for a similar result.

Nice with pizza, light tannins and dark fruit. Got better after open for an hour or two. Good value wine and based on previous notes, curious to see if it improves on day 2.
