A lot of the fruit has receded. Fairy green but decent. Beautiful nose. Preceded the 1996 cos, which I would say was better and has held up better.

2014 Schrader Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon RBS Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard

Oakville more

11/24/2022 - Mjladha Likes this wine: 93 points

Great bottle, huge potential. But still seems early as it’s fairly tannic. Great fruit, structure, depth and breadth. Nose of cinnamon, pepper, anise. A beauty, but will wait a couple of years for the next one prob

It’s fine. Subdued. Menthol-y and herbaceous. I can’t see this one getting that much better with age. Maybe I’m wrong.
