Possibly our favorite- 2013. Fruit bomb but mellowed quick.

Surprisingly light on body: medium to medium plus body, medium plus tannin, fruit forward, red/purple flower bouquet. Silky and pleasant to drink. Fall on short after taste. Overall a good wine.

Earthy nose, dark fruit with blackberry, graphite and a luscious long finish. I was always a little wary of the 2011 vintage. This wine stands up and is delicious. #trefethen #napaoakknoll #cabernet

Nice Cabernet. Dark in color. Smooth tannins. Not as full bodied as I would like for what I paid for this bottle. Just average. May need to age a bit.

Pretty good. Would buy again, but not high on the list.
