An outstanding Saxum. Complex, concentrated yet extremely balanced. I was a bit worried it was too early to drink but that wasn't the case.

A nicely structured pinot with plenty of body. Made the 07 Brewer Clifton next to it seem like a namby pamby wine. Perhaps could use a bit more time in the bottle.

I wasn't expecting much after the previous CT glowing recommendations but I gave it a go. I liked the fruit and the tannins were subdued. The finish was a bit of a disappointment Not that I'm a big Italian Syrah drinker, but it wasn't all that bad. I would easily drink another bottle. Of course I'm not as picky as Kevin and Jeff.

great nose, pretty good on the palate but not like liquid honey goodness going down your throat - more like liquid sugar badness.

was expecting so much more for the 04 especially considering how much i liked the baby pingus. everything was a little subdued. it did seem to open up a little but not enough to make me go wow.

The more I drank this wine the more I liked it. Nice nose, good finish, but the complexity was surprising. Seemed like I was tasting a different berry with each drink. All in all a nice wine. Drinking a little early but with great potential.

Nice nose with a good leathery smell. Tannins were smooth, finish was good. Fruit a little subtle for my liking. Alcohol didn't overwhelm. Seemed to be drinking just fine for it's age.

Nice fruit, good balance but finish wasn't great. Liz was a bit disappointing. I expected more since the last few Cats and Nats were very good.

I would be hard pressed to pick this as a CDP in a blind tasting. While still young this wine has tons of potential. The complexities and fruit all blend together to make a special wine. This should make you a big fan of new world. If you like the leather band-aid tastes then this wine is not for you.

This has been the my fav of the 07 KB's so far. Not that it was outstanding, but it had nose, fruit, finish and balance. I actually enjoyed drinking this one. Finally an 07 KB that can hold it's own against Kistler.

Nice nose and fruit flavor but overall somewhat subdued. The lack of complexity and short finish surprised me as I was hoping for so much more from an 07 especially from KB.
