Bright and juicy black fruit aroma - blueberry, blackberry, mulberry, cassis, black tea, and just a hint of earthy forest floor. It’s mainly primary fruit now but a bit of oak and sweet baking spice come in on a long finish. Soft elegant tannins, high acidity but very well balanced by the fruit. Very fruit forward, very new world and very delicious

Lot of minerality expressed here, iron and lead. Fruit is ripe and red. Tannins have eased but acidity remains quite high. Surprised WE have it a 97, although a nice wine, seems high to me.

5/2022. Another nice 2018 cad from Napa. Feel good to drink. Bold with flavor and finish.

Too bad this app doesn’t allow me to log the year. I’ll include it here. Wow. This is good. We had the 2018 Cab. I won’t soon forget.

12/2021. Nice big cab. Lingers on the palate with a smooth finish.

Dark ruby. High acidity and strong fresh tannins. Full array of fruit - black, blue and red - balanced well by forest floor, cedar, leather and tobacco.

A deep nose of ripe black fruits and juicy red fruits, clove, dark chocolate, and cedar lightened by the pretty purple floral. Rich palate but highly structured with round vibrant acidity and ripe sweet tannins.
Delicious now and will age beautifully for the next 10-15 year. Fruits are from 3 estate vineyards in Howell Mountain, Mount Veeder, and Oakville. Well worth the price.

Celebrating the life of my mother who passed away last Friday. She enjoyed drinking wine with our family.
