Our last bottle, and enjoyed with H&M as we hunkered down together. A great excuse to tap into the wine cellar. Still as fresh, lively and enchanting as the first bottle we popped years ago. Straw-hued in the glass. Fresh cut hay, honeysuckle and pineapple in the bouquet, followed by guava, papaya and a hint of mint on the palate, Lush finish. Still one of the best SB’s I’ve ever enjoyed, and worth the hefty price tag (for an SB, at least). Drink now to 2023. Outstanding.

H wanted an SB to break her wine fast, and this one did the trick. Every bit as delicious as when last tasted, with all of the elements you’d expect from a “cut above” offering. Stuffed with lemon zest, grapefruit, papaya, lanolin and lovely floral elements. With a texture that keeps you coming back for another sip. One of the top three Cali-SB’s I’ve ever tasted. (= Outstanding)

Very good. Classic Napa Cab. Big on fruit but a complexity comes through. Drinking very well right now.
