Really nice wine. Not a standout in the crowded field of Napa cabs. But certainly a decent and enjoyable wine. Decanted for 1 hr. Very peasant to drink. Dark fruits, cherry, tobacco. Smooth integrated tannins. Had the rest of the wine from the decanter the next night. Still singing. I enjoyed this wine as it reminded me of the session at the winery. Wine names and the whole thing of the winery owners writing love poems to each other is a little hokey. But the wine is good!

This was really good. For a less than stellar vintage, I was very pleased with this. Balance favored the fruit, but there was nice depth, complexity, and finish. This could go another 2-3 years easily.

Somewhat thin and lacking in expressive character for a bottle at this price range

Very consistent with other vintages of this wine - never would have guessed 2011.
