  Cassis, blackberry and blue notes are complimented by tilled soil, wild herbs, spring flowers, graphite and saddle leather. Great depth and texture. Aromatically pleasing. This is my style of Napa Cabernet. This wine is in a great drinking window. Great juice.

  Pnp first glass, decanted and drank over the next three hours. Definitely better after an hour and best at three. Great fruit, present but soft tannins, integrated oak and plenty of acid. Delicious.

  I decanted the wine for two hours. Blue and black fruit with graphite and tilled soil are on display here. Great texture and depth. The tannins are well integrated, but still present. Classic Napa Valley in style. Good juice.

  This wine is in a really great place. All the hard edges are gone, everything seems in balance. Not nearly as pruney/alcoholic as the 2007 I had a few months ago. Even at ten years old, the color and nose didn’t seem aged at all. If I had a complaint, maybe it was a bit soft. But, i wish I had a case more.

  This is a very nice wine. It needed at least 30 min. to open up. On the nose there's a display of blue berries and blackberries, tobacco, coffee and anise. This a full bodied cab that is bold and impressive. There are hints of vanilla w/ a sweet oakiness. The tannins are soft and round w/ a very long finish. This wine seems like it's jsut starting to display more interesting and complex flavors...can't wait to try it in 5-7 years.
