December 26, 2018 - Shared this wine with friends at Christmas Eve dinner. Superb compliment to standing prime rib. Well balanced with great intensity and mouth feel. just enough acid/tannin to balance a well marbled piece of beef.

August 26, 2012 - I think this needs a bit more time; not quite as smooth as other vintages of this wine. Still a very nice wine.

July 18, 2010 - Interesting and different from many Napy 05 Cabs. Deep purple and opaque in color, with pleasant nose of fruit and smoky vanilla, follows on the palate with an interesting and complex flavor profile of blackberry, cassis, cedar and an herbacious but pleasant undertone that offers promise for cellaring. A nice medium finish, and a very Bordeaux-like profile that is definitely enhanced by new-world fruit. Wish I had a time machine to resample in 7 or 8 years. Very good.
