  Fully matured cabernet. No bricking, lots of acidity and backbone.

  I opened a bottle in July of 2013 and it was firing on all cylinders. Tannic, deep blackberry and leather tastes with a hint of pepper. Everything you'd expect from a napa cab. I opened a bottle tonight and let it decant for 2 hours, finally started to loosen up and was much better when paired with food, but it appears to have passed its prime. Tasting profile was over-ripe and slightly musky, with hints of the flavor profile from last summer so certainly still drinkable but recommend opening asap if you have one. Absolutely love ZD wines, my fault for not opening sooner.

  RRV and Napa Visit; 7/7/2014-8/30/2014 (Napa and Sonoma): This gets a touch mossy on the nose. Again, delicious blackberry, but the fruit doesn’t show the juiciness and breed of other vintages in the set.

  A great cab. very well integrated and smooth. A nice balance of fruit and fine tannins but I can't see this improving any and might even begin to lose some of the front end with more time. (note I gave it 2 hours to breath). Drink up.

  aromatic, plenty of fruit on the palate, came together w/a 45 minute decant, eucalyptus, medium body and finish. Could have a few more years left (into 2105).
