An excellent Napa floor Cab with tastes of blueberry, blackberry, kirsch and vanilla. Full bodied, well balanced. New World for sure. Will be good for many more years

We had the 2013 Vintage on 5/2-3/21. This was a terrific full bodied, well balanced wine. Tastes of blackberry, plum, kirsch and vanilla on the palate. The tannins were smoothed out. A great example of the Napa floor.

We had the 2013 Vintage on 8/16-17/20. The prior bottle was bad, an anomaly. This has all the characteristics and tastes of a good Napa floor Cab. Blackberry, cherry, cassis and vanilla. Full bodied, well balanced, fruit forward, New World wine.

We had the 2013 Vintage on 7/31/20. This might be a bad bottle. There was some astringent taste that marred the wine. We have had a better experience with the same wine previously, so let’s hope the next bottle is better.

We had the 2013 Vintage on 6/5/20. Nice bouquet of dark fruit, cassis and oak. Tastes of blackberry, blueberry, plum and spice. A New World, fruit forward, Napa Cab.

Loads of red fruit, soft tannins and a great mouthfeel. Ready now with decanting. Will improve with age.
