Chateau Montelena
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
Bold flavors from this excellent wine, that may have been just a little bit past its prime. But a fantastic accompaniment to the Prime stakes we shared at Hanna‘s for for the birthdays of our friends the Swanson and the Bailey‘s. #napacabs #napavalleyred #chateaumontalena — a year ago

Bravante Vineyards
Trio Howell Mountain Merlot Blend 2012
Big mint chocolate, spruce, damson reduction, cinnamon dusted cedar, ripest blackberry, violet, vanilla bean and even a shadow of juniper on this warm and fuzzy Howell Mountain nose. Medium mouthfeel echoes the damson, presenting bay leaf, smoky raspberry, a touch of graphite and blueberry skins in a tightly rolled and endlessly layered sub-strata that stretches to the horizon. #Trio #bravantevineyards #howell #howellmountain #napavalleyred #napawine #Napa — 7 years ago
Montes: Napa Angel
Aurelio's Selection Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
Excellent Napa Cab from Montes. The 2008 summer was very hot, keeping yields low and providing concentrated berries at harvest. This is a big, full bodied wine delivering lots of ripe dark fruit, pepper, tobacco and some chocolate. Smooth and almost velvety in the mouth it has a long and pleasant finish. Decanted for 2 hours, this will last another 15 years or more.

Bought from LastBottle.com in November 2024. Here’s a #napavalleyred blend that has aged gracefully. Not ideal tasting conditions but a delightful cuvée where the new oak has completely integrated, still firm acidity and a good deal of primary fruit still there with no stewed fruit notes that suggest poor storage. Long supple tannins towards the finish. Opened the bottle in celebration of our 17th wedding anniversary. — 4 months ago
