March 4, 2021 - Drank this on a zoom with Mark and Jaime while they drank the DP that fedex failed to deliver to me in time!
This was a great consolation prize. A beautifully integrated ready to drink cab, lovely mature fruit flavor, a hint of Orange rind (no Mark, I did not eat a tangerine first this time!) some licorice and many other things I can’t remember.
So much better than the one I drank a year ago post Covid and everything was off. Excellent wine. 2 hour decant was just right.1 person found this helpful Comments (1) -

April 3, 2020 - This is in such a good place right now......pencil shavings on the nose with soft red fruit. Pine needle, maybe a touch of forest floor. Wow! Gentle spice and red fruit. Carol says "it's French", I say...."it's good, really good." This is in a great secondary phase right now. Who knows how long it goes for?

November 14, 2014 - Great big Napa Cab. I enjoyed it with two other friends and we all loved it. The one continue to open up throughout the evening.

November 28, 2013 - Very good, big Napa Cab, dry finish. Prob best to lay it down for another year or two but still a solid wine. shared it with my family on Thanksgiving and a few loved it and would probably give it a higher rating than I did.
