  April 28, 2020 - So this was the reserve...
  Delicious
  Great full bodied wine that is rich and elegant at the same time. Decent nose, very nice finish.
  Don't know if this guy's a patriot or a traitor, but makes great wine.

  June 28, 2013 - Still impressed with this wine, although the nose -- at least on the bottle -- was a little musty.

  April 11, 2011 - Assorted Napa Cabs Blind (4/9/11): Dark fruit, kind of grapey. Very good wine. Will likely come together with some more time.

  July 19, 2008 - Saturday Group Kicks Off with Haut Brion: Very strong smell of Flintstones vitamins. Densely fruited blueberry stewiness. A bit overwhelming -- Lewis-like -- on the palate, which is too much for me, personally. Just a lot of intensity to the wine. Very CA -- really, it couldn't be from anywhere else. Some drying tannins cut the finish short. Not my thing, really. But, I might like it with a book and some cheese. I can see why some might enjoy this more than I.
