Meleagris Gallopavo Vineyard Old Vines Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
Still have 12,13,14,15...could not resist popping a 15 for a taste.....give it another 4 or 5 years and hopefully will drink another 20 years. Cheers!
I do have a 12 of the Reserve, which I didn’t even know existed until I saw it on an auction, not sure what the difference is from this bottling. They don’t have a Reserve anymore.
Interesting..never heard of a reserve...he started with the 2011, but was not up with his standards and never released...first release was the 2012 for the Meleagris Gallopavo cab.

Had my last 17 B Thieriot last night, probably too early but was a great bottle even while young
They do drink well young, hard to save em. Cheers!

Marcassin Vineyard Pinot Noir 2009
Had an ‘01 last week that was just marvelous.
Wow, what a treat. I have been on their list since 06 and hope to keep a few vintages until they get that kind of bottle age.

Meleagris Gallopavo Vineyard Old Vines Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
Luv the nose—a burst of sweet deep cherry chocolate and pine licorice spice. Rich, pure and beautiful dark purple-garnet color. Explodes with blue and blackberry fruit—smoky, tar and coffee-chocolate linger. Tannins are present but smooth. This can definitely age another 10 years. Luscious and layered. A must try! — 19 days ago
Cliff Lede
Beautiful Generation Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon 2012
From the Cliff Lede Vineyard — luscious and layered. Decanted for an hour, as well as double decanted. Will open nicely: now enjoying blue and black fruit, floral and cassis on the nose. Bursts of blackberry fruit, cassis and chocolate, with dry tannins, smoke and pencil lead on the finish. Long finish at that—can’t wait to see how it opens throughout the evening. Luv it! — a month ago

A family reserve 2004 Cabernet. What a treat from the Spoto Family Library! Purplish red ruby color. The nose has an initial cream brûlée scent, then bursts with black fruit, green veggie, earthy spices. Taste—definite blackberry fruit, tobacco smoke , chocolate and spices linger. Medium, but sweet tannins and velvety smooth in the mouth with a long finish. Could age more as the overall taste is still fresh for being 15 years old. — 11 days ago
