  Opened this tonight to go with a nice steak dinner, which is quite rare for us these days. This has always been a favorite wine, but I figured that if we held onto our last bottle much longer, it might go over the hill. How wrong I was. This has the stuffing to go another 5 years, easily. Just a beautiful wine, just as it's always been. Beautiful fruit, floral, mineral and earthy notes, wonderfully integrated. I still consider this one of the best wines I've ever had at this price point. So sorry our last bottle is gone, but we'll be seeking out more from more recent vintages.

  Enjoyed many bottles of this vintage, drinking best right now. Explosive nose of plum and violets that fills the room. Smooth tannins. Opened after finishing Stags Leap Artemis, no contest as Croze was undoubtedly superior.

  First impression of this Napa Cab was alcohol and heat which did not blow off over the course of the evening. Fairly dry, firm tannins with loads of dark fruit but all of that took a back seat to the heat.
