Community Tasting Notes 8

  July 26, 2020 - Positives surprised by the development of this wine. Still very fruit driven with benchmark cassis (no its not from Chile ;-)). But more balanced than a couple years ago, this wine is a positive example for an entry into serious Napa Cab Sauvs. Should hold at this level for another decade.

  November 17, 2019 - this wine, stored properly for its lifetime exhibits excellent qualities of excellent aged Zinfandel. Fruit forward, full bodied, and absolutely delicious! Enjoyed this bottle with BBQ Chicken and Pork......excellent complement.

  December 21, 2017 - Decanted for a couple hours and drank over a couple more. It needed all four hours to finally show it's stuff. Bright rich berry fruit. Thick. Really good at the end.

  November 18, 2017 - It's a little thin. Good but probably past peek. No complexity. Was getting fuller at about the four hour mark.

  May 11, 2014 - First, when opened up a very expressive nose of cassis and blueberries. On the palate a little jammy and one dimensional and missing some structure and minerality. 2 days later it paired very well with a nice piece of grilled flank steak, I would say its a summer barbacue wine which can hold its own against some barossa shiraz. I would recommend to drink it at or below 16 C to keep the fruit.
