94 Points

Sunday, May 7, 2023 - Three and a half hour decant. Nearly opaque electric magenta color. Blackberry, plum, and oatmeal cookie. Dry, satiny palate, with bright, lingering, mouth filling acidity. Firm, full, plush tannins on the long finish.

This was my first ever Greer. We wanted something fun to celebrate our 28th anniversary. We were married quite young by today’s standards, so we’re not as old as one might think. ;) This Cab is young, voluptuous, and still quite primary. There’s lots of room for improvement, much like us. I hope to wait until my 30th anniversary (or longer) for the next bottle.

    I got married back in 2005. Little did I know I picked a great vintage which is a bonus now that I'm into wine.

    Looking forward to Blarmston Greer tasting as well. Want to go there next stop out to Napa.
