2000 Lewis Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon ReserveNapa Valley more |
1/22/2023 - PIFGD Likes this wine: 94 pointsPnP. What a beautiful wine. Opened while at Old Edwards Inn with our son who was born in 2000 and just graduated from W&L. Only got better as we let it breathe. Not sure how much longer it can last even if properly stored from bottling but the way this bottle drank, it shows no signs of fading anytime soon. So smooth and integrated but yet rich and complex. If such a thing exists this drank like an older Bordeaux but on California Cabernet steroids. Truly enjoyed! Wish I had more. |

8/1/2021 - PIFGD Likes this wine: 92 pointsHad with grilled lobster. Still at its peak if cellared properly from youth. Wonderful rich nose. Silky and elegant. Rich with butter and hints of fruit. Let warm up to approx 62 degrees to get more of the complex notes etc. Still has a few years left. |
