NY/NJ WLTV Offline at Anthony Davids (Anthony David's, Hoboken): Slightly funky, earthy nose, showing bell pepper, but also nice dark fruit in the mix. Smooth mouthfeel and medium-bodied with medium to medium high tannin and medium acidity. Medium long finish. A "restrained" style of Cali cab.

WLTV Tribeca Grill Offline 5.24.10 (Tribeca Grill NYC): Dark fruit on the nose with just enough earthiness to give it some character. Cherry fruit on the palate along with some earthy notes and bell pepper/pyrazine. Medium oak influence.

I have to admit when I poured this out of the decanter and into the glass I had to do a double take and make sure I hadn't accidentally grabbed a young left bank beauty. Faint Brett on the nose blows off but only with some time in the decanter. The palate is beautifully complex with plum, vanilla, cedar and tobacco flavors all dancing together and wrapped underneath generous tannins. Troubadour's first Cabernet is surprisingly old world for my palate and I'm glad I have another bottle. Medium Finish 14.6% EtOH - $60

A warm and intoxicating aroma of blackberry cobbler, roasted fig and fresh cinnamon pastry unfolds as a subtle black licorice and sweet pipe tobacco essence round out a very hedonistic nose. The palate shows a balance of power and grace with both refined tannins and a deep core of dark plumb and brandy soaked cherries. The wine finishes with a touch of vanilla and sandalwood that lingers and completes a truly satisfying Cabernet that is both accessible and age worthy. Anticipated maturity 2010-2021.
