#AgedWineTuesday
Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim. Not showing much age.
Gorgeous nose, and dry and fruity on the palate with medium acidity.
Showing blackberries, black currants, black cherries, cedar, cola, licorice, light vanilla, light coffee, chocolates, earth, black pepper and tobacco leaf.
Long finish with fine grained tannins.
What a wonderful surprise. This 23 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is drinking fantastically.
Elegant and fruit forward. Rich and extracted. Soft and smooth.
Good right out of the bottle, and so much better after an hour in the decanter.
Wine Enthusiasts 94 points. Robert Parker 97 points. Wine Spectator 98 points.
Showing great complexity at this point, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
A great sipping wine. Just gorgeous.
A blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc.
14.1% alcohol by volume.
97 points.
$230.

2001 vtg, black cherry and cassis aromas, great depth and richness, long finish, still could use 3-5 yrs

Tastes really natural as expected or organic farming by Beth and gang. Medium framed with nice nuanced fruit, tannin and acid balance.

Medium body , light acidity, perfect balance. Pop & pour 10 minutes in your glass & it opens nicely.
