I think it was drinking fine. The fruit and tannins are there. It is ready to drink now. I think there is no benefit to keeping it longer.

2017 Cakebread Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon

Napa Valley more

4/19/2024 - Raywilliams420 Likes this wine: 91 points

Fruit jumps at u with a slight note of vanilla on the nose. Palate says red fruits over dark fruits. Super approachable. Kind of harmonious an in a good place to be consumed. Nothing over done at the moment. Gave it 4 hours of air in the bottle with some space for the wine to touch the air. Lasting finish. Not a spectacular wine but I have no complaints. Of course it could be better but everything could be better. In a good drinking window after some time to breathe. Drink up friends.

Decanted. Dark fruit, cherry and plum. Medium tannins. Lots of kegs. Plenty of life left, could easily age another 3-5 years.

Big bold red fruits. Smells and taste bright red raspberries and strawberries. As the wine opens, the fruit is less pronounced. Still drinking well and has a few more years left in the bottle.

Tea rose color. Scents of hibiscus, strawberry, touch of melon. Smoothed out honeydew & peach flavors. Finish has a low acidity.

Clear pale gold; clean medium nose of lemon curd and butter; dry; medium plus acidity; medium plus alcohol; medium plus body; medium plus to pronounced flavour intensity; palate is tarter with addition of caramel; long finish; drink now or in the next couple years; a slightly more restrained style of Napa Chardonnay; delicious

Very dry, high acidity, purple hue. The next day tasted better, you could pick up some plum, but still fairly acidic and dry. I’ve had other vintages (I forget which ones) that were delicious, but I would not buy another bottle of 2017 again.

2021 Cakebread Cellars Cabernet Franc

Napa Valley more

4/2/2024 - HowellMountainCru Likes this wine: 90 points

3 hour decant then drank over 3 hours. A surprisingly red fruited Napa Cab Franc. Medium body with raspberry notes. Kinda of reminded me of a Spanish Tempranillo. Young, so it evolved somewhat over time. Enjoyable and offers a nice change of pace from the typical higher end Cabernets I usually drink. 90 now with maybe a point or two higher with age. HMC

Minimal sediment.
Tight at first but mellowed quickly to be very balanced and midway between youth and full maturity.
Good now.

2022 Cakebread Cellars Sauvignon Blanc

Napa Valley more

3/26/2024 - La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine: 91 points

Purchased by the glass at a restaurant from a freshly-opened bottle, this wine was serially sampled over a 90-minute interval. Comprised of 94% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Sémillon and 1% Sauvignon Musqué that was fermented in a combination of stainless steel (97%), concrete eggs (2%) and neutral French oak (1%), it was subsequently aged for five months in neutral French oak barriques (98%) and concrete eggs (2%). Light golden in color, it is immediately aromatically expressive of grapefruit, quince, honeydew, wet stones and cut grass. Light-to-medium-bodied, seamlessly alcoholic (13.9%) and with lively acids, it delivers flavors in line with the aromas, adding a wisp of oak. Solid in the middle and medium-to-long on the back end, this is an impressive New World Sauvignon Blanc that was an excellent accompaniment to raw oysters, chilled lobster and sushi. Enjoy it in its youth. Drink now-2026.

This wine was great. Nearing the end of the window in which it will be very good. The tannins are very subtle at this point. The wine is more delicate than it used to be, balanced flavors of ripe berries and a little earthiness.

A beautiful burgundy style Chardonnay. Calebread knows how to let the grape shine through without adding all of the oak “butter” notes. A well balanced wine.

2 yrs beyond the estimated/recommended drink dates but it tastes great! Enjoyed it by itself at first, then with grilled chicken and veggies. This would be great with a cheese board too.

Forgot to write tasting notes on the first day. This is day two. Definitely not as tasty as I remembered the day prior. Feel this wine should be drank completely on the first day. 89 points today. I remember it being very tasty yesterday.

From 75cl, good cork, P+P, served ice-cold in a restaurant in Santa Barbara. Medium-bodied entry with ripe lime fruit linear right through to the finish. Good concentration and purity, bright acidity. The very last drops, 90 minutes after opening and near room temperature, were the best. This still squeaky-textured wine should show so much better given 2-3 years in the cellar. I feel for cephomer (CT TN 01.03.2024), although we got away with paying "only" $75 before tax and service. Restaurant wine lists... 89-90P
