Community Tasting Notes 10

    July 4, 2023 - Beautiful deep ruby red, purple hues, thick legs, smoky cherry aromas with earthy notes. Soft on the palate with robust cherry flavors, toasty rustic hints develop midpalate, firm structured tannins balances well with clove spice hints in a long finish.

    March 22, 2022 - Nice wine. Violets and vanilla on the nose. Smooth tannins. Medium finish. Solid Napa Cabernet. A little pricey but drinking well now.

    December 13, 2021 - Typical cali cab. But quite well balanced, restrained strawberries and red fruit with soft tannins.

    March 19, 2021 - This didn't meet expectations at all. Quite a cold, hard, almost dead profile, the fruit was absent. Maybe it's a bit more of a Bordeaux style, though I love Bordeaux, but not this. Feels like poor winemaking really. I generally like the '14 Napa vintage too.

    November 11, 2020 - Nice wine but didn't live up to the 13, 15 or 16. Didn't get a lot of what I'd consider the stags leap distinction.
