February 8, 2024 - I have always found Mount Eden Cabernets and Pinots to be under the radar gems. They are also long lived.

November 29, 2020 - Touch of camphor on the nose. Great fruit with minerals and acid, a hint of cinnamon on the end. Rich and racy.
Had with filet, leeks shitake saute. -

July 28, 2020 - This has some nice ripe dark berry flavors and clearly well made. It gets better with an hour decant and earth and tobacco emerge. But this is just too ripe and overblown for my taste so it was hard to drink the whole bottle. I left a glass unfinished which is never a good sign.

November 1, 2018 - Decanted for about an hour. Incredible. Enjoy now or hold, this wine isn't going anywhere.
