Still going strong, I wish I had a few more bottles. It reminds me that Merlot received a bad rap in Sideways.
This was velvety and full of flavors ! — 8 years ago

20 years on and still youthful characteristics shine through. Tannins mellowing and some savory secondary flavors are there, but all about dark fruit, tobacco, bell peppers and fresh leather. 13.3 abv as well! — 10 years ago

Last score of 92 given a little over 3 years ago. This wine has definitely improved with time in the bottle since then but I dare say that it really (for me) isn't necessarily true to the variety. I initially rated this a 95 but settled on 94. My drink dates (2015-2026) which vary quite a bit from CT's are right on the money. This one was served pop and pour although the best of this wine was probably about 2 hours after cork pop. This one is at the top of the hill right now. Black and blue sweet youthful roasted fruit nose and palate with wildflowers. Great acidity on the entry and the finish. Toasted tannin. This is probably a top 5 Cab Franc for me. I've managed to save a lot of 2012's, and I think that if they all are going to drink similar to this I need to start crackin' em!! Drink or hold another 5-7 years. — 7 years ago

A bit too smooth at the open - however, an hour later tangy fruits and chalk came through. A nice find for the money and it's age. The steak at the Bancroft isn't too bad either... — 10 years ago

Has that lovely aromatic thing that GC burgundy has that Cali pinots just don't. Firmly structured still, ruby in the glass, and perhaps a little foursquare overall for GC, but still a beauty. Some wines age like Anne Bancroft, and some a bit more like Kathleen Turner. — 10 years ago

As good as any Merlot in the world gets. These Bancroft ranch Merlots seem like they age beautifully for ever. — 10 years ago

At the Bancroft (steakhouse). Bordeaux style blend of cab sauv, merlot, cab franc. Nice balance, silky, with cab franc adding a touch of violet pastille. — 10 years ago
