Medium bodied but lively and refreshing. Nutmeg and cinnamon on the nose with hints of vanilla and freshly kneaded yeasty dough.

Reminds me of Granny’s kitchen. — 8 days ago

8.9

Heavily oaked with ripe tropical fruit and apricots backed by dried herbs, nutmeg, and vanilla. Finish indicates significant malolactic fermantation, a bit short for the money. All in all, a solid wine, but also a bit richer and oakier than I prefer. — a month ago

Just enough butter notes yet crisp & refreshing. — 13 hours ago

An oily texture that coats the palate. Love the texture and it matches well with vanilla and green apple jolly rancher, minus the sweetness. Hints of baked goods, like a fresh scone. — 8 days ago

Outstanding Cab from Hall wines. Loads of up front fruit on the nose and great complexity and structure throughout. Blackberry, currants and a bit of spice. Tannins have softened with bottle age. — 16 days ago

Light, fruity, and tart. Candy apple and peach. Still has lots and lots of time to mature but it isn’t an awkward teenager. Even though it’s a slow developer, it’s graceful and athletic as heck.

It reminds me of going to the county fair as a high schooler, wearing my letterman jacket, thinking I was so cool and nothing could be better. — 8 days ago

A Hall bottling I’ve not heard about before. Inaugural vintage is 2014. Predominately from Calistoga and Saint Helena (hence North End of the valley). 22 months 80% new French oak.

No detail notes, but this is beautifully balanced and elegant. Approachable but have the structure for 20-25 years cellaring.

Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers! — 3 days ago

We had the 2014 Vintage 6/20/21. This is a good California Cab. The tannins were smoothed out. The palate featured. Plum, blackberry and oak. Fruit forward, full bodied wine. — 3 days ago
