Tasted blind. Dark reddish tawny, almost opaque. "Wild ass nose" my notes say. Notes of red fruit, plums, spice, moist earth, a little mocha and some old leather. Lively fruit matched with a nice structure. I'm in old Bordeaux land with my guess of 61 Mouton. Table talk points out how ultra rare this bottle is, with those in the know viewing it as one of the best CA cabs ever made. Hard for me to argue that as it sits next to the 74 Heitz MV and goes toe to toe with it all night. — 2 years ago

Beautiful, with strong underripe strawberries and other tart berries, a light nuttiness, like chestnut maybe, with a beautiful zesty minerality and long finish. Celebrating Tiva’s new job offer! — 8 months ago

Belle bouteille, très aromatique au nez et en bouche, fruits rouges croquants, ca evolue tout au long de la journée, les epices, le herbes (thym), petit cote terreux et animal. C’est complexe, belle acidité, bien structuré, on en veut plus. Excellent — 4 years ago

Plain, just fruit and a bit of acidity to prop it up. Really suffered on a lineup vs other CA producers at similar price point — 6 months ago
