January 30, 2024 - Just a solid Napa cab. Silky smooth and unctuous texture. Perfect integration of tannin and wood at 13 years old. 2011 Napa cab are great wines imo. Sweet black and blue fruit, cedar, a bit of mocha. Everyone loved this wine and what’s not to love (especially 2011 price points for Maiden!!). Highest recommendation.

November 23, 2023 - Stunning. Big, bold Napa cab with a solid underpinning of tannins. Softened nicely in the next several hours after decanting. Will last significantly longer than the current CT drink-by date.

April 13, 2023 - Good, but not as good as other vintages. The fruit is dark blackberry, boysenberry, but it doesn’t come together as one would expect.

February 25, 2023 - Decanted for 2 hours. Still reserved and seemed a little tight on its own. Smooth tannins with some leather and earthy hints. Paired great with medium rare filet mignon and grilled Brussels sprouts. Big hit with the bartenders.
