  March 30, 2024 - 2 hour decant. Great Cab, still showing good fruit and ability to age and get even better.

  June 14, 2023 - W roast chicken. Was not in CT inventory. Very different note this time. Mediocre nose and fruit. Maybe even a bit hot. Too much menthol on the finish. OK but nothing special other thana $15 wine.

  February 24, 2023 - 10 years on this one now. Pop and pour at Blackfish restaurant. Paired surprisingly well with tuna tartare and perfectly with short ribs. This wine has improved markedly since we got it a few years ago. I'm really only familar with this vintage of this wine though a tiny bit in more recent ones for other Hall Cabs. For 2013-Not quite the clean, fresh feel of the Ellie's and not quite the intensity of the 1873 and frankly I can't see why buy the Katherine's at nearly 4x the price of this one and double of the Ellie's and 1873. This Coeur is certainly a step up from the entry level Hall Cab, is not a stunner but a great restaurant wine and a style of Cab that I really like. A bit old world in character, does not try to overdo it. Not a huge complexity but plenty of dark fruit and other medley to keep it interesting. Great mouthfeel and tannins not resolved but not very evident. Can go a longer time, easy 5-10 years I suspect. Small amount of mostly fine sediment.

  October 8, 2022 - W vealchop in Pelham. Yummy. Very Cali cab but great overall. Great fruit body and length. This will live a few (5) more years and get better. Good!

  July 10, 2022 - I have been disappointed with most if not all of K.Hall wines except for the flagship
  They all seemed flabby flat not interesting and overpriced
  This one is different
  intense fruit intense earth and integrating tannins
  glad I have one more
