I know it is the offspring or the want a be cousin of the Schrader clan but I just get worried drinking with the thought of drinking 200 plus often so this Napa Cab will be fine - it is singing to me and not the seasonal favorites but deep bass hymnals in that good way saying "man is this good bud" followed by "amen" and then "c'mon man" and then I wake up realize I was wanting this to be a RBS but what the heck - this is sort of distinctively good and at quarter of the other Schrader cabs I came back to saying "Amen" - almost big, bold enough and thus a good looking wine - deep dark fruit with blackberries, smell is very intoxicating and a little smokey with some heat but good balance so smooth enough and finally finish is lingering long enough to think about the entire package while compelling you to take another taste but with graceful sync - for the money - definitely recommend and hard to get after 2011 so might be a dinosaur soon - this is a good night to smile and of course the double diamond bomber x helps the lips curve upward on the ends as demonstrated in the small picture to follow 😃👍🍷
