Community Tasting Notes 10

  March 4, 2024 - Pop and pour, drank half the bottle over 2 hours. This is a glorious Napa cab that has a traditional profile. Great fruit, leather, earth, spice and acid. Drinking great now.

  November 30, 2016 - Extremely young. Even after decanting and giving it plenty of air, this was closed, with very dry and bitter tannins. Air helped the nose (nice black and red fruit emerged), but the palate remained bitterly dry and tannic. I suspect this will improve with age. How long? I will likely revisit in 3-4 years, but would not be surprised if more time was needed.

  April 28, 2016 - WOW! This is some very spectacular stuff. This is a "Top 10 Lifetime" bottle for sure.
  
  Dark ruby-red color. Aroma was spectacular. Very deep, rich and smooth. Taste mirrored it exactly. A very long finish. Even though it's 9 years old, there's a great balance of fruit, tannins and oak. Amazing stuff!

  December 4, 2013 - good amount of oak but very tightly wound. Still too much alcohol on the nose. I think i will wait at least another 5 years before i open my other bottles.
