Groth Vineyards & Winery

Reserve Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Medium deep ruby with a thin violet , ruby rim. On the nose with time in decanter , this shows spicy crème de cassis , grafite and blackberry , red plum , touch of vanilla and a light toasty note, cherry . On the palate this has a richness of dark fruits , with blackberry , dark cherry , sweet quite suave tannins , quite good freshness and good acidity . The next day this comes across more reserved and focused with a saline , grafite tinge to the ripe dark fruits , fine chiselled tannins and really nice freshness . Good grafite tinged length. Pretty young still , this will improve over the next 5-8 years and keep well a further 10 or so . — 7 days ago

Beaulieu Vineyard

Private Reserve Georges de Latour Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

2021 vintage. Decanted and passed, with high air, between two decanters four times. If it were Caymus, woulda used a blender and forgotten. Last tasted 8.5.26 (9.6) Older (60's, 70's and early 80's) vintages more fruit driven which is quite the surprise in the current Napa Cab climate. Arguably the best GDL Private Reserve this estate has ever made. That goes back six decades. Supple, velveteen entry without the temptations of appearing over-extended. Structured mid-palate. A seeker's wandering, yet undeniably substantial finish. Taste it and you tell me. — a month ago

Daou Vineyards

Reserve Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon

Black cherry, clove, dusty cigar humidor and some milk chocolate but this doesn't support the price point. More of a red blend profile. Might need some time. — 2 months ago
