5/21/2024 - rbfleming Likes this wine: 90 pointsSubtle dark fruits. Prunes, blackberries and leather. Lots of acidity and excellent body. Probably will open up with air. |

With air red fruits dominate: red currants, dried cranberries, plum, more bramble. Palate shows darker red fruits with just a slight herbal quality that makes me wonder if there is some cab franc in the mix. Very light for a cab and soft on the palate. This has evolved nicely since my last bottles and there is plenty of life left. Delicious! |

I suspect a few more years will soften the tannins and open this gem for future drinking. The drinking window on this wine, in my opinion, is way off the mark. This wine will improve over the next several years and, for now, requires significant breathing time to really enjoy. |

Was a sample bottle from the cellar I purchased. Sample sticker said just over 1900 cases produced, released in 2008, and release price of $95. 100% cab sauv. Used an ah so, but the cork (short cork) came out easily. Was in great condition, with almost no soaking. Poured a deep red in the glass with a nose of blue and black fruits though a bit of a dried fruit profile on the nose. Immediately tasted, and it was in pretty good shape. Fresh to cooked red fruit on the palate, with an ever so slight prune taste at the end. Still there, but well integrated tannins, good acidity. Was a bit thin though, to me. I think if I had tasted blind I would have called this a 10 year old CA cab, so it has held up quite well. Fun experience - and great looking bottle. |

3/17/2024 - Rich S Likes this wine: 92 pointsPopped and poured. Medium crimson color. Nose of ripe dark cherry and juicy plum, a bit of cedar cigar box, chocolate covered cherry. Similar flavors on the palate with a nice mix of ripe red berry fruit, toasty oak, herbal cough drop and a bit of earthy forest floor. Medium acid and tannin. Smooth mouthfeel and finish. Drinking really great at the moment. |

12/22/2023 - Rich S Likes this wine: 91 pointsConsumed over two days. Very primary on day one with more overt new oak and sweet, dark cherry and plum fruit. Day two brought more balance and a bit of earthy, woodsy flavor to the mix. Medium acid and tannin. Smooth finish. |

12/3/2023 - DFBW Likes this wine: 92 pointsWedding anniversary red. Two hour decant. Slight whiff of age but overwhelming profile of cassis and blackberry both on the nose and the palate. Silky smooth wine a a bold one too - rich and fruit laden. The hint of ag remains throughout. Very Californian. It's not a subtle wine but it is a very delicious one. Been to the estate as well - lovely place. None left and not sure I can hold of any more in the UK.. |
