November 7, 2020 - Fully developed and drinking nicely. Seemed a little shy on the fruit at the outset, but got better over the night and kept going back to it over and over again. Put it on the WineKeeper but might as well have just opened the bottle as it was mostly gone the first night.

July 4, 2017 - Aged and smoothed extremely well. After opening showed great balance , mouth feel and long finish. Paired very well with beef and even complimented the freshly smoked (bbq) salmon.

August 2008 (link)(Chanticleer Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley) This blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Sangiovese captivates immediately with aromas of cassis, fraise des bois, Morello cherry, cantaloupe, spearmint, tarragon, cedar, and vanilla. It offers luscious, ripe, dark-berry fruit, juicy natural acidity, and creamy oak notes. The silky, mouth-filling Cabernet shows its tannic structure only on the slightly drying finish, which is also imbued with a gorgeous, long-lasting blackcurrant note. A mere 405 cases were produced.
