Best, deep red, not too fruity, but could get deeper. Very close to what I normally want for deep red quote out being bitter or to sweet. — 3 months ago

Sweet. Stone fruits (apricot and peach). I would score it higher if it had a bit more acidity. Enjoyed with a pear tart. — 2 months ago

So after the 2018 of a couple of weeks ago which needs a couple of years to come together, this is just entering it's drinking window. Still a big, structured young-ish wine but very drinkable with a decant. This oozes dark fruit, graphite, earth and chocolate. Very pretty aromatics and matching fruit on the palate. I found 2018 much more singular/monolithic. This has much more going on. Grippy and dry but I sense a bit of sweetness from aging already. I like the sweet components more than the drying tannins so I will bury my other bottles of both vintages for a couple of years.

Edit: on day two this evolved into a compact spice bomb, very impressive 97-99 in a few years. — 3 months ago

2018 Far Niente Cabernet. Love this vineyard and their signature cab is outstanding! Very nice bouquet, rich with dark fruits, blackberry, plum and light earth notes. Thick long lasting legs. Very smooth on the palette. Rich ripe fruit at the start with blackberry. Finish is smooth with light berry notes. Very low tannins. Love it! Paired well with a big Italian meal with lasagna and sausage. — 19 days ago

Yummy. The fruit is fantastic. Must have been a really nice growing season. The ‘23s have been very tasty. — 3 months ago
