January 23, 2020 - - Brick color with medium forming legs. It's in total harmony with a full body. Smooth texture with a long finish - This was the star of the show last eve with 2009 vintage side by side with the following:
Terra Valentine-Yverdon
Crocker andStarr Stone Place
Beau Vigne
Chateau Montelena
August 3, 2019 - The wine has lost some of its luster although it still is plenty tannic. Good flavors but not great. Slightly disappointed
June 5, 2019 - way gone
June 21, 2015 - Still has plenty of life in the bottle. Great spring mountain flavor
March 28, 2015 - A nice Cabernet expression with a firm tannic structure.
May 18, 2013 - GEMS of the Napa Valley Tasting Event - Minneapolis (Golden Valley Country Club): This was a little closed and rough on the edges from the tannins but it had a nice dark fruit profile with acidity. Give it a few years and I think you'll be rewarded. Drink 2015-2025.
