Nice nose of dark/red fruit, mushroom and forest floor. Beautiful garnet with little oxidation change. Taste was still a bit tannic and showing signs of toeing over - maybe 2-3 years past it’s prime. Still lovely, complex tertiary notes of tobacco, roasted beef and tree bark. Paired beautifully with a thick smoked bacon app and filet of beef with sides. Last bottle of this in the cellar.

Nice, clean sauvignon blanc. Little to no vegetal aromas or flavors. Citrus, zippy acidity classic Loire minerality. This is a great daily sipper and food friendly bottle.

A beautiful Napa Cab in the prime of its drinking window. We enjoyed this thoroughly on the 4th of July!
