Bond

Vecina Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

1 hour decant(decent chunky sediment). A splendid still dark magenta color at 25 years. On the nose: Seductive notes of brambly stewed dark fruit, eucalyptus, worn leather, herbaceous, smoked meat. Taste: silky, rich, still vibrant wine with dried dark cherry/blackberry, herbs, loamy soil, chocolate espresso, and a spiced cedar licorice long lingering finish. YUM!!! — 2 days ago

8 Red Blend 2021

2021. This wine caused the most discussion during our dinner. Complex dark fruits, leather, and blood aromas did open up a bit and it paired better with some of the lamb dishes than others. — 4 months ago

Opus One

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1985

Presented double-blind at dinner. The wine pours a deep garnet with a near opaque core and a slightly orange rim with considerable variation; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears and some fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and desiccated fruit: black currants, blackberries, plum, pipe tobacco, capsicum, pencil shavings, a touch leather, organic earth and a mix of dried herbs and some fine warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Really tasty stuff.

Initial conclusions: this is an old wine, likely 30-40 years old. That being said, it’s still very distinguishable as it’s showing varietal characteristics. This could be Cabernet Sauvignon (or a blend thereof), Cabernet Franc (or a blend thereof), or Merlot (or a blend thereof). I can see this being Napa because the fruit is still showing some generosity. But there’s a lot of non-fruits there too. Regardless, this was giving Left Bank vibes so I could also see this being Bordeaux from a great vintage like 1982. And that’s my call, Cabernet Sauvignon-blend from France, Bordeaux, Saint-Estèphe, from a classified growth like Calon-Ségur. Shucks. But I’m not mad about my choice! Old Opus One’s are tricky to differentiate. Drinking very well right now but this will live well past 2035.

St. Eden Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2007

1 hour decan(decent chunky/fine sediment). A striking still dark garnet color. On the nose: Captivating notes of dark fruit, stewed meat, mushroom, eucalyptus, roasted coffee bean. Taste: silky, opulent, structured wine with dark cherry, tobacco, charred earth, currants, herbs, pepper, and a coffee-pencil lead long finish with just a touch of heat from the alcohol. YUM!! — 6 months ago

Double L Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

Dark purple in color with medium plus intensity.

Fruity nose with red fruits, flowers spices, light oak and chocolate notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with raspberries, fresh cherries, light oak, spices, chocolate, light red candy, coffee and black pepper.

Medium on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a young Pinot Noir from Santa Lucia Highlands in California. Rich and fruit forward. Elegant and nicely balanced. Complex and interesting.

This 4 year old Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is already drinking nicely, and will continue to age nicely in the next 7 to 10 years.

Wine Enthusiasts 91 points.

A good sipping wine that will pair nicely with food too.

100% Pinot Noir grapes were aged for 11 months in (41% new) French oak barrels. A small production of only 6,100 bottles.

13.4% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$75.

Big, dark yummy Cab. Schroeder does a great job bringing this alive - jammy with soft tannins, not as velvety as I would like but soft enough! App isn’t allowing location - had at Steak48 — 3 months ago

We have been drinking this wine for 10 years now. As the fruit drops out it becomes more stringent with strong oak tannins, losing some of its depth and ease of drinking. — 9 months ago
