A nicely-balanced Bordeaux-style; 79% Cab Sauv., 8% Petit Verdot, 7% Malbec, 6% Merlot. Deep, intense and concentrated, pleasant herbal and dark berries aromas, some spice notes, great coating and rounded tannins, silky finish, persistent aromas of cacao and espresso. A truly gem from Pritchard Hill, Napa. — 16 days ago

Sipping Fine Wine

9.1

Blend of 78% Sauvignon Blanc and 22% Sémillon, pale lemon with aromas of tropical and citrus fruits with white floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, peach, pear and lemon citrus notes with good balance, crisp medium finish ending with fruit and stony mineral notes. Nice value! — 7 months ago

Big step up from the Heathcote 2020 Shiraz, tight, somewhat structured, and needs some time, but very nice depth of flavors, and nice length, very good!! — 2 months ago

It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Deep purple in color with a short purple rim.

Pretty nose of blueberries, cooked black cherries, blackberries, figs, cedar, vanilla, spices, chocolates, earth, herbs, coffee, tobacco, licorice and black pepper.

Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, currants, black cherries, raisins, dried figs, vanilla, cedar, cola, spices, dark chocolates, coffee, earth, bitter herbs and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley. Feels like a Napa Cabernet with a Bordeaux touch. Fruity and rich, yet elegant.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 2 hours in the decanter, but it definitely needs longer than that.

What a great mouthfeel. I just love these Napa Bordeaux blends.

Still young and would be better in 5 to 10 years. Could be a 97+ point wine in 10 years. Will continue to age nicely in the next 20 years.

Thank you John for sharing this with me.

A blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

94 points.

Juicy, authentic and refreshing so fruitful with passion fruit 🍊 and citrus tangerine, grassy yet the sweet fruity brings the layer with its long finishings of fresh fruit and summery vibe
