With Hangar Steak… Wasn’t expecting much looking at reviews. In a great place tannins resolved but lingering in background. Tons of blackberry(liqueur), pencil lead, refined earth, dark currant and slight glycerin. Worked well with Steak and on it’s own. Pleasantly surprised….have 1 more bottle.

4th Saturday Brown Bagger (T&L's): Double blind. Another that shows a good amount of heat. Dark fruit, prune and chocolate notes. Ripe and pruney. Guessed cab sauv.

Still has plenty of dark red fruit, but already seeming a bit flabby. Doesn’t seem to have the structure for lengthy aging. Probably would have been better a couple of years ago.

I had this wine before as a part of a tasting with friends. Bought another bottle and opened a year later. Very impressed both times. Not much to dislike. Everything in a right place. On second day I could not keep my hand off the bottle till all was gone. Just a great cab for a casual dinner. Will go for another 2-3 years for sure. Enjoy!

A rather dry Cab, with dark red purple fruit. Oak tones and some ware between medium to full-bodied red wine with a tannic structure. A respectable Napa Cab. 90+ points. Day 2 it shows better, still a solid 90+ points.
