2011 Schrader Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Double Diamond TFA Cuvée, Premiere Napa Valley Lot 6 — 11 years ago
Tonight I am drinking a beautiful cab from Napa, Double Diamond Bomber X 2010. Yes 2010! Schrader Cellars in Angwin CA has done a great job with this wine. The cork took some effort to remove but it had a perfect absorption line. The color is midnight black with a hint of deep purple on the surface. The legs seem to last forever - a full 10 seconds. There is hints of dark Cherry and blackberry on the nose. No alcohol hints at all. The initial flavor is silky dark chocolate and blackberry with a hint of cedar and spice on the tongue. The finish is light with a slight tingle on the tip of the tongue. Not a heavy wine but not as light as a pinot. There is a small hint of sour grapes on the aftertaste - the only drawback. Overall, I love this wine. Good job!

This one in still available for around €70 in Sweden, so I was intrigued to try the WOTY. Full bodied with ripe dark fruits, plenty of baking spices, currants, cedar wood. I prefer this over The Mascot from Harlan, the quality of the fruit comes across a bit superior here. Very well made. — 3 years ago
