Exposure Cabernet Sauvignon
Oakville, Napa Valley, California, USA
Beautifully balanced. Smells like oak (vanilla!). Subtle berries and very easy to drink

Nice bottle we found hiding in the cellar. 2010, glad we found it.......good flavor profile, but maybe right at peak, or slightly past. Too much $$ for a 91 pointer, yet still enjoyable, just not anything fantastic, or memorable. Short to Medium finish, still full bodied, with blackberries predominant.

It reminded me of a Brunello more than a CA Cab. Light to medium bodied, notes of plum and black cherry. A light tannin finish.

Nice fruit flavor, dry, crisp. Clean finish. Well worth the price

Woo hoo...yummy Napa Cab with rack of lamb. Decanted this 2010 vintage which showed its solid structure , boysenberry/dark fruit /chocolate overtones .
Really special .

Jan 12th, 2015Excellent. Went for Caymus and grabbed a bottle of this. Outstanding. Very subtle whereas the Caymus is overstated. Kind of like the reassured guy at the party who doesn't have to show up in a $3000 suit and overwhelm the conversation with story after story.
