March 21, 2018 - Drinking at peak - Really lovely Rutherford bench California Cabernet. The tannins are soft but holding it all together. Luscious secondary flavors, particularly sous bois.

June 2, 2016 - Lots of plum and red fruits, surprisingly vibrant with nice lift and juicy acidity. Very much an Old World style, food-friendly Cab.

February 16, 2016 - It couldn't have been more enjoyable. It was not decanted but was enjoyed slowly over time with proper glassware. It had a great nose immediately. The color was good. The taste was mature, classic Napa with a good balance of older fruit and structure. If I had more, I would drink them now. Warning; the cork was very fragile.

December 5, 2014 - This one was past its prime. After the vinturi it was better but the fruit just couldn't fight its way through to the level expected. Not oxidized or bad, just a bit far gone.
