This wine sale and for good reason. It's drinkable, but why waist the calories. when there are better wine to available for the money. This one is not for me.

A 2018 bottling that is open for business, showing very well. On the palate nice blackberries, dark cherries, and hints of cassis with smooth tannins. Medium to full bodied with some tobacco, and cedar notes too. Much better than anticipated, if you try this one, you won’t be disappointed. 93 points and drinking nicely. What a surprise for a 2018.

I can't believe how much I have enjoyed the Myriad Napa Valley Cabernet and the Scarlett Cabernet. Fortunately I have been able to put away some of the Scarlett and a few of the Myriad Cabs.

5/11/2015 5:07:00 PM - Hey Yack Man, you seem to have very similar taste in wine as me and was wondering if you would mind giving me a few suggestions for some California reds that are similar to the 2010 Hewitt. I love big, chewy, plummy fruit bombs, they can't be too dense for me honestly. Up to around $100/bottle is OK. Please email me at marty@modernbathroom.com if you have any ideas. I really appreciate it. This isn't some kind of solicitation or whatever, I just can't figure out how to Private Message you (I'm new to this site).
