  Napa Cab Afternoon (DV Central): Part of a Napa Cabs tasting double-decanted and blind.
  Inky purple black. Intense nose that almost made one think this was a Cote Rotie with the macerated berries, roasted meat and florals. But any similarity to Syrah was quickly eradicated on the palate. This was squarely premium Cabernet with black currants, amarena cherries, baking spice (mace and vanilla?), rosemary and mint. Fullest body of any of the wines poured. 30sec+ finish. Well made. Thanks CW. Three way tie for WOTN.

  Very nice cab that was building body and intensity with air. Probably drank too quickly otherwise might have added a point or two if it had time to fully blossom. Regardless, it had nice balance, flavor and glided over the palate. Agree with Jeb's "silky" descriptor. A 2017 Daou Mayote also enjoyed that night may have hurt this a bit as it was more dynamic.

  Gifted by MichiganDogs from our tasting a few weeks ago. Decanted 2 hours but really needed another 2 in order to bring its best to the dance......at that point this is every bit of a 94 and may have improved further but I finished it right at I was wrapping up getting my ass kicked at dominoes by Mrs. HMC. (I think she cheats.....or she's a savant). Nice weight by then in the mouth and the fruit really blossomed with blended tannins and matching acidity. Great balance. Thanks for the nice bottle Mdogs!

  3 years since my last bottle. Still really nice wine, hint of age on it. No formal notes as I had with wings and pizza after the Eagles game.
