February 12, 2022 - My last bottle - sadly. Opened an hour before pouring. Was concerned it might be on the back side of the curve but this bottle was fantastic. Has to be about peak right now. Still sufficient tannin to hold up to a grilled fillet mignon, but softened and smooth. Great expression of a big, juicy, Napa cab. Delightful and sad to say this was my last bottle of this vintage.

December 19, 2020 - Opened an hour before pouring (did not decant). A bit tight at first at cellar temp but after 20 minutes in the glass and warming up a bit it opened up wonderfully. Nice, ripe dark cherry and blackberry fruit well balanced with leather and tobacco notes. Rich mouth feel, age-softened tannins, long savory finish. Drinking great right now, can’t imagine it getting much better.

June 14, 2017 - This bold cab continues to show deep color with some light garnet tones on the rim. The nose was dark fruit tones of raspberry, plum and maybe a hint of prune. The palate was dark fruit as well with plenty of tannic structure. The alcohol feels a little out of balance as there was considerable heat through the finish.
For some reason I don't love Alex Valley cab but this wine is alive and kicking and a good representation of the region.
Enjoy in good health! -
