Voluptuous is the first word that comes to mind with this big Cab. A medley of aromas with plum, cinnamon, tar and mocha infused dark berries.

Cool little mini vertical (2004-2006) from @David L and @Shawn R and all were performing exceptionally. These are always such dependably sultry and delicious wines with an unmistakable chocolate/dark fruit profile. Stuart Sloan sold this winery to the Pan family several years back for almost 50 million and I’m not sure they take visitors from their mailing mist. It could be an extra fun tasting if they bring wines from their other estate—Chateau Bon Pasteur.

Big. Scratch that, Enormous. Dark plum, cassis, licorice, undertones of smoke and honey. It’s almost as if they stuffed all the weight in the bottle - very unique for Napa. This would complement a Punch Cigar, Venison, etc. be prepared for a nose bigger than an elephant but it is worth the experience.
