Nicely balanced and fresh with sliced apple, pear, melon, papaya, tangerine, and a brush of vanilla from 10 months in barrel (30% new). There’s a salty streak here that I didn’t expect. Not over the top. Entry level single vineyard from Far Niente. — 10 days ago

Always reliable. Juicy BlackBerries, black pepper, and beef jerky. One of the better values in Napa. — 7 years ago

Lloyd made the rounds working at a bunch of renowned wineries, Cakebread, Stag’s Leap, La Crema & Rombauer where he gained Head Winemaker status before leaving in 2008 to start his own project, Lloyd Cellars. Fruit sourced from blocks in Sangiacomo & Truchard Vineyards, aged for 10 months in new American oak. Aromas of ripe stone & tropical fruits, citrus and blossom notes. Palate has apple, pear & peach flavors with bits of citrus wrapped in a creamy texture. Long rich finish ending with slight toasty notes. Tasting Sample. — 6 years ago

9.1

This Truchard over-delivered on low expectations. Smokey and fully resolved, though past it’s prime it delivered Napa Cab essence and the class of an old CA gent. — 5 years ago

Pinot Noir from Napa Valley. Very light, ruby red in color, subtle, mild, and fruit forward on the nose. — 6 years ago

Purchased on release and cellared. With some beautiful bricking on the edge, this showcased some smokey, dusky black fruit with great restraint and full acid. Wish I had held more back. — 8 years ago
