2009 is proving to be one of my least favorite CA Cab vintages...great pinot but not great cabs. this wine is similar to other CA cabs from that year...a bit thin and tannic with bitter edges and fruit that has dissipated faster than normal. slightly disjointed but does the best it can.

At Baldacci this glorious Fall morning, fruity nose of blackberry, black cherry, currants, and dusty earth, more of the same on the palate, mouth filling, fruit forward, at it's best, delicious, medium/big body and a long, long finish.

Nose of blackberry, black cherry fruit, and a hot dusty road on a summer's day, more of the same on the palate, mouth filling, lots of ash, tasty, almost elegant, at it's best, medium/big body and a long finish.

Nose of blackberry, plum and black cherry fruit, more of the same on the palate, dusty forest floor on the mid palate, bought from the Baldacci Library so storage always helps, lots of melted chocolate taste, mouth filling, lots of ash, tasty and almost elegant, mature so drink up if you cellar it, medium/big body and a long finish. My last one-ouch!!

Was fantastic. Will age some more newer vintages.
