I agree with the writer of the previous note: I expect more from Sequoia Grove single vineyard cabs. While not awful, it is definitely not exceptional. Bouquet is flat. Smooth in the mouth, but finish is somewhat estringent. Some cheese or food would probably help.

My lone bottle. It was good but nothing compared to the 04 or 05 vintage. Just an average Napa Cab. A little too heavy on the tannins. I thought time would help but just not a terrific vintage by Morisoli standards. Glad I did not purchase any additional bottles. Drink soon since I don't think time will help. It was still decent but just not great based on price point.

Tasting at Sequoia Grove. Lot of tannins. More tannin than the stagecoach of the same vintage. also drier. perhaps will benefit from a couple more years in the bottle.

Tasted at the winery along side the 04 and 05. Needs more time but an excellent wine
