Nice basic NAPA Cab. IT was a bit disjointed but had good solid flavors albeit light: coffee, cocoa, cedar, green pepper. Finish had a nice, light, dry, long-lasting tannin

Opened by Allred. Supposedly made from the grapes that don't go into Dominus of Napanook (in that regard it reminds me of the Waterstone cabs from 5-10 years ago which were supposedly 3rd wines of Harlan). Not decanted. Sweet fruit with notes of cherries, black pepper and a hard candy undertone. Medium bodied. 89-90 points.

Sunday Group: Mini-Horizontals- Mondavi, Dominus & Chappellet (Mike's): Double blind. Notes of red currant and sandalwood, somewhat stemmy too. Tannic, with black fruit and a bitter quality in the finish.
My #9, Domino's #6
Group #7, 70 pts
