3/18/2022 - MemorialWineFan wrote: 93 pointsI've tried many cabs from this age in the last few years. This one had no fade and is juicy and wonderful. Thankfully, the cork held up too and had a long way to go. Most of the cabs like Caymus, Conn Valley Anderson, Frank Family, Heitz, Bryant Family, etc. all go to the same place with a linear finish that is underwhelming. I applaud the vintage. I want a different experience in each cab and got it here. Other than Diamond Creek can't think of the last time I get a different flavor profile. Well done. |

2/22/2022 - MemorialWineFan wrote: 90 pointsIt's a nice cab, but overpriced. I have tasted over 20 of these. Core issue is the cheap cork they used. It's a shame since the bottle is costly. From the 20 I have tried this one is solid with no flaws. Several have had flaws. I think it from importing grapes from who knows where. Thus a lot a variability in the wine.

2/17/2022 - MemorialWineFan wrote: 92 pointsSurprised me. Drinking lovely. Still held together and not moving to that one place which older cabs do. Cork was spongy though. I was lazy and snapped it, but surgically extracted it. Don't drink much from this maker, but I get the feeling their wines aren't over manipulated. |
