Epic crème buttery oaky — a year ago
The V.2021 Titus Family Estate Reserve Cab. Sauv. is one their finest expression of their Ehlers Lane vineyard. Situated in the core of the St. Helena AVA, along the base of Howell Mountain AVA, with the Silverado Trail on its Eastern border and the Napa River to its West. This place has a very long and rich history in the fines wines that has produced Beaulieu, Charles Krug, and Cuvaison.
This terroir is fully expressed on this bottle with has a blend of 87% Cab Sauv., 9.5% Petit Verdot, 3.5% Malbec which offers an immense concentration of dark berries aromas with some hints of violet all the way. It has an extremely approachability on the palate with an incredible delicacy of ripen red fruits, yet the coffee espresso mouthfeel is beyond enticing, together with the chewing tannins blending with texture of the cacao beans and the long but not over lingering oak at the very end, it takes you to next level.
Incredibly, this wine is just climbing its prime time and will evolve even more in the next 10 years, but can it be enjoyable now like I did as well. Cheers to this caliber of wines! — 8 months ago

Excellent Chardonnay, similar to Cuvaison Chardonnays — 6 years ago
"Odedi"
Golden in color.
On the nose apples, citrus, oak, vanilla, spices, lemons, pears and light honey notes.
Full bodied and elegant with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with yellow and green apples, citrus, spices, oak, minerals, herbs, sea salt and light earth.
Medium finish with lemons and marzipan notes.
This Napa Chardonnay is tasty right out of the bottle. Elegant and fruit forward. Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel.
Still young and needs a couple of years in the bottle to remove some of the oaky notes, but already balanced and entertaining, with nice complexity.
Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in (40% new) French Oak barrels for 10 months, and 4 months in steel vats. A small production of only 26 barrels.
