The longer I have waited with this 2000 the better it has gotten. Tried it again last night and it was just amazingly good. Plenty of the napa fruit left, but oh so much texture and character and silky smooth finish. This has become a beautifully mature wine worth waiting for.

I've been trying a bottle of the 2000 Dollarhide each year for the past 4 years.....and NOW is the time! This wine is at its peak of integration. Beautiful layered fruit, soft tannins, earth, cedar, dark berries and a long finish. Really a great Napa cab now.

This wine has been a favorite for several years. I served to fellow oenophiles and they concurred that it was delightful and posibly at its peak

Earthy. Strong leather. Soft tannins. Little complexity. Maybe past peak.

Decanted. Lovely garnet color. Tannins are softening. Fruit, olives balanced earthiness
