enjoyable older napa vintage. fruit is still there, tannins well integrated. secondary characteristics coming through. Structure is ok, wouldn't save this any longer, drink away.

Drinking beautifully right now. It was definitely worth the wait. Beautiful deep blackberry in color. Smooth and velvety on the palette w a bit of fennel Acidity balanced and layered fruits. Just pour and drink. No decanting necessary.

My notes and comments are in line with Morteza and TheLostVerse. Deep purple in color, rich dark fruit notes (more prevalent fruit than in other Napa 2011’s that I have had), robust notes of tobacco and leather, minor notes of chocolate. Only drawback was the finish- which was only of moderate duration. One of the better cabs I had from this vintage.

Probably past it’s prime. Not a good QPR

Needs air before consuming, otherwise very acidic. Medium-bodied, pleasant wine. No wow factor.
