Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, May 27, 2015 - Waited two years after opening the first of this vintage and it was worth the wait. Galloni rated 97+ and he is spot on. Brought this out for our 25th Anniversary dinner and it did not disappoint. The nose is just wonderful. A little tight right out of the bottle (didn't get a chance to decant), but not overly so and this baby really opened up over a 90 minute drink. Would recommend a two hour decant if you have the time.

Smooth does not begin to describe the wine. Cab Sav with just the right amount of Franc and Verdot make for a great big cali wine that paired well with a big, juicy ribeye.

Drink up or hold - or do both! This wine will not disappoint.
