  Definitely has a touch more fruit than the 18 or the 19 but still elegant and drinking beautifully. Starting to integrate more. I'd say this will be best in 10y but can drink very well now.

  Contrary to some recent CellarTracker reviews, I found this to be youthful but also very charming. It certainly has teeth, but it also a
  Ready has complexity, as the deep red fruit combines with spice, and a bass savory note that builds the foundation of the wine. Following a short pour, I let the rest of the bottle open for two hours before pouring another glass. Good strategy. The fruit lifted, and the aromatics opened the longer the wine was open. If I had to do it all over again (and I will) I would go with a full decant, and not just the open bottle. This is a distinctive and nuanced Napa Valley Cabernet, and one of a small (but not insignificant) group that swim against the prevailing tide. Or perhaps it leads the way to the future.

  Plum Market wine tasting. Apparently this wine is in somewhat of an awkward stage now in consideration of the favorable reviews - I was underwhelmed. Fairly tannic and tart. Nowhere near the 94 rating from Suckling. I’ll refrain from rating it because I don’t believe it’s in the best place and needs time but upper 80s at best if rating.

  Decanted 3 hours and served with ribeye. Red fruits, cassis, bright acidity that cut through the food well. I enjoyed this but falls a little short of my lofty expectations. Maybe it’s the vintage or I drank this too young.

  Cool fruited. Good acid 14.2%
  Light and balanced for a US cab.
