Dark inky in color with a short reddish/ brick rim.
Strong nose of cooked black fruits with cedar, vanilla, licorice, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, spices, light earth and black pepper.
Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry, and still fruity on the palate, with blackberries, black currants, cooked plums, tobacco, cedar, chocolates, vanilla, licorice, cola and mediterranean spices.
Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This 22 year old Bordeaux blend from Beckstoffer Vineyard in Napa Valley is drinking gorgeously now. Rich and fruit forward, extremely complex and engaging. Well balanced with a soft mouthfeel.
Still drinking at its peak, although will not get better from this point on, as it feels like it is at the end of its peak.
I did not decant it, and let it open up in the bottle. Delicious after an hour, and a great sipping wine.
A superb experience at this point in time.
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

Decant and pour. On the nose: Terrific nose of stewed plum, eucalyptus, herbaceous, smoke, black olives, and mushroom. Taste: smooth, creamy, dry wine with blackberry, pencil lead, dried herbs, smoke, dark cherry, earth, and a medium finish. — 2 years ago

What can I say I love anything Angela makes, and the new Tribute to Grace tasting room in Los Alamos is a gem. My Dad declared this was his favorite wine ever and my mom is from nearby Cucamonga, so let’s just say everyone was happy. For that reason, wine of our trip out west after not seeing the folks for 18 months. As always, just incredibly elegant Grenache, light on its feet, but not without its nuanced power — 5 years ago

Wow, great wine. Tons of potential. I feel like it’ll be amazing at 10–15 years. Some huge tannin. Fruit is there tons of dust and earth and leather. Every type of cherry imaginable. Love it. — 3 months ago
An excellent Pinot Noir. Balanced, slightly tart cherry flavor with a floral bouquet. Love it. — 8 months ago

Revisiting the vintage after 18 months. Tasting notes similar to my previous pouring: complex mix of orange, lemon and tangerine peel flavors, almost crisp, plenty of fruit here but lactic/mineral finish gives it dimensions, layers, what have you. — 5 days ago
