The 2015 alexander valley is a worthy follow up to the 2014. Not as chocolatey and a little less depth of flavor compared to 2014. This still has great fruit. The 2013 napa is your more classic cab with earth/pyrazines and chalky dry tannins. It still needs time. For me, the alexander valley is the clear winner of the 3 and it's also the cheapest.

Lovely soft tannic frame, deep dark fruit core, oak shavings. Wonderful balance, length and drinkability

Delicious as before and I believe even better than five months previous! I think this is a super Cabernet to open now...I have come to realize that the oldest wine I possess is a 2012 and I am committed to not opening wines prematurely @David T 😉!!..so wish me perseverance 🤔..this could mean that Costco and John's Grocery in Iowa City will become fast friends of mine

Additionally...I want to send out an additional Cheers and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone..be safe and Enjoy! Thanksgiving this year falls on my rotation to work...I will be @ work assisting people to breathe!

Great bottle of cab super smooth, lot of fruit and not many tannins.
