2019 Aubry Wines Cabernet Sauvignon Les Belles Filles Vineyard
11/6/2023 - ffzhang Likes this wine: 91 Points
Pop and pour over 3 hours. Quite easy to drink, fruit forward but much lighter than any Napa Cabernet I’ve had recently. Barely detectable tannins or acidity until around the 2 hour mark. Enjoyable, but not impressed, as I expected more body and depth.

2018 Memento Mori Cabernet Sauvignon
9/27/2023 - ffzhang wrote: flawed
Popped my second bottle for out-of-town guests that were visiting and unfortunately, this wine was flawed. The aromas were very different from the first bottle we drank a few months prior; it left a harsh bitter and unpleasant note on the palate. I attempted to aerate the wine both by using an aerator, as well as leaving it in our decanter for 2 hours, both of which did not have much effect on the wine.

2019 L'Envolée Cabernet Sauvignon

Decanted for one hour and drank over the next few with a Flannery porterhouse. First time having this wine and was pleasantly surprised. Very vibrant youthful fruit, with nice herbaceous and earthy notes. Medium plus on the body but the tannins and acidity were balanced and nicely integrated. Overall, a bit young, but thoroughly enjoyed through the evening. I’m excited and looking forward to seeing how this ages.
