Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.

Full bodied, smooth and soft, with medium acidity.

Showing black fruits with cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, black pepper, dark chocolates and light herbs.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a really nice Cabernet Sauvignon from Atlas Peak in Napa Valley. Fruit forward and spicy. Rich and elegant.

Still very young, but already delicious. A good quality wine that will continue to improve in the next 10 years.

Tangy and entertaining with nice complexity. A good sipping wine.

Nicely balanced and good by itself or with food. Will pair nicely with a nice piece of steak.

A blend of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot. Aged in (40% new) American and French oak barrels for 15 months. Only 900 bottles made.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Full bodied and elegant, with medium acidity.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon blend from Tuscany. Smooth with nice complexity and a great mouthfeel.

This 19 year old is Interesting and tasty. Not from the best vintage, but still very yummy, and at its peak right now.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 3 hours of airtime.

Thank you Judy for sharing this with me.

9.0

90% Tempranillo; 10% Graciano. Red fruited perfume, earthy with medium plus intensity. Palate at 21 years is developed, balanced and soft with fully integrated tannins. Medium weight with declining strength to its inner core. Not near as good on the 2nd night. This aged overnight and finishes a little sour. I was going to give it 94 points but will now give 90 points. — 4 months ago

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Pretty nose of red and black fruits with light cedar, licorice, spices, light vanilla, herbs, tobacco leaf, chocolates and peppercorn.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with black currants, blackberries, plums, cherries, cedar, spices, toast, light vanilla, dark chocolates, earth, coffee, peppercorn and black tea.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa valley. Complex and nicely balanced. Spicy and entertaining.

Rich and fruit forward, and not in your face kind of Napa cabernet. Elegant and fruity, yet subdued some.

Needs 2 hours in the decanter to open up properly, so be patient.

I've had many different vintages of this wine and I really like this vintage.

Delicious now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, or with food like BBQ Meats.

A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc and 6% Merlot. Aged in (50% new) French Oak barrels for 22 months.
