Cabernet from Napa will never be great, but this is damn good for being a Cabernet from Napa. Sugar is more muted than is the norm for the region. — 8 months ago
Still pretty alive, albeit more into tertiary notes with some fruit still evident, at 47 years old. — 5 months ago
Vintage 2015 | true to type Riesling. Beautiful slate minerals in smell, full bodied at first sip, good acidity after swallowing. Personally I prefer the Mosels with sweetness. Why harvest spätlese and Auslese and vinify it ‘trocken’ ? A slightly better when you eat with it, eg some charcuterie. — 2 years ago
Great, bold, heavily spiced Napa Cab. that stood out like the arrogant American tourist with the European elegance of the flight. Being American, it made me smile. Let it breathe, it settled down and showcased why it deserved a seat at the table. (I may have enjoyed listening to the gentleman across from me have to take back his initial thoughts) — 3 years ago
2019 vintage. Thought some of the previous 2014-2018 vintages were ready steady go! from the onset but this may take the cake. Light-medium body. Nose is über-giving with herbs and baking spices. Finish of 40+ seconds highlighting a cocoa/baking chocolate baseline supplemented with ripe dark cherry and plum. Tannins fully in check-for now. — 3 years ago

Smells like a German Riesling. "That's one for me".
