Monday, June 15, 2020 - Wines Done Blind: This saw about 4 hours of air before we poured it. I was kind of surprised with this wine, as I poured it blind for the group and I heard guesses like Petite Sirah or Syrah. For Cabernet, I would argue that would be guesses I would not be seeking as a winery with my craft. And I think the table felt some shock when I pulled off the bag and they saw what it was. This is full of dark red fruit, dense and concentrated, very modern. I enjoyed it but I am not sure how I distinguish this bottle from another high-end Napa Cab, especially from a winery like DC that has such a rich history and reputation. Maybe it was the vintage, maybe it was the style being sought, maybe both?
