A beautiful Napa cab. Nosecof light dark fruit - cherry and blackberry. Taste followed with beautiful acidic flavors of red and dark cherry and cassis. Finish was spectacular with the soft tannins and it’s acidic balance. Beautiful wine.

Very similar to previous tasting note, dark fruit, lush, creamy yet with sufficient lift and savoury undertones to keep everything in balance, spicy mid-palate 93++

Warm cassis, plum, blackcurrant, sage, bitter chocolate, bay leaves and baking spices. The palate is medium to full bodied with dark warm berry fruit, cacao, dusty tannins and savoury spices, the mid-palate feels reserved, warm and spicy, finishing medium length. Certainly this is Calistoga, with the warm dark fruit and slight lack of freshness, a solid Napa Cabernet.

Aromas of cool black fruits, tobacco leaf and dusty earth. The palate reveals a core of ripe plum followed by graceful notes of coffee and pencil lead. Soft, silky tannins on the medium-short finish.

Dark earth and tobacco on the nose. Tannins somewhat refined. Dark fruit, well balanced. Nice cab.
