Community Tasting Note

75 Points
Saturday, May 26, 2018 - I'm somewhat mystified by the reviewers that give this wine a high score. I understand that everybody has different tastes in wine but I usually like big Napa cabs (Outpost, Larkmead, Rivers Marie, etc.) but I think this wine is not very good. It's resemblance to cheap port is striking for a dry table wine. I have quite a few vintages of Lewelling and most of them are quite good but this vintage is a huge swing and miss by Dave Wight. If you have any of this in your cellar please don't share it with anybody you want to impress; you'll be embarrassed.

Maybe this vintage drank better young. Besides the 2011 vintage, the 2007 vintage was the only one that I didn't care for since the 2001 vintage. Take care.
