March 22, 2024 - Popped & poured and showed nice balance from the start. Improved as it opened up, dark berry fruit, mild acidity, soft tannins, medium finish. Good PQR, drinking well & likely has a year or 3 left.

September 1, 2023 - Needs a good decant. Lots of oak on the nose PnP. Much better after about 2 hours decant. Still plenty of dark fruit to last for years. Tannins are pretty solid and integrated.

August 31, 2023 - Nez intense d'allumette et de fruits...prune broyée. Un vin souple, ample, rond et fondu aux saveurs de fruits mûrs, de sucre d'orge, de tabac et de notes grillées...complexe, harmonieux et très charmeur ! Moyenne à longue finale veloutée. Prêt à boire et délicieux !

April 2, 2023 - Drank after hour decant. Surprisingly good for price compared to other Napa Cabs we have recently had from 2012. Drinking well right now but still has some time left. Not overly complex but we enjoyed it at home with steak.

March 26, 2022 - Maybe top ten 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon I have had. This in comparison to the other top nine is on the cheaper side. This one is hitting big and I think could easily go another three years. It is definitely not on the back side of drink window. I Love Cade wines and this is one of the best Napa vintages I have drank. In fact we had this wine a few years back with some friends and it hands down is way better now…
