9.2

Light yellow in color with a golden hue.

Beautiful and aromatic nose with apples, white flowers, diesel notes, honey and minerals.

Medium plus in body with high acidity.

Dry on the palate with a touch of RS.

Showing citrus, limes, apples, spices, white pepper, minerals, sea salt, light river rocks and diesel.

Tangy long finish with limes and spices.

This is a delicious Riesling from Spring Mountain District in Napa Valley. Elegant and fruit forward with enough acidity to balance the fruits.

Rich and nicely balanced. Feels like a Mosel Riesling. Tangy and interesting.

Still young, and already drinking beautifully. Will continue to age nicely in the next 15+ years.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 20 minutes of airtime. Better when not too cold.

I had a few vintages of this wine and it always delivers. This vintage is delicious.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food. Will pair nicely with spicy Asian food.

13.3% alcohol by volume.

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish/ brick rim.

Beautiful nose of black fruits, cedar, chocolates, herbs, tobacco leaf and cola.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, mint, vanilla, spices, licorice, espresso, cola, light herbs, eucalyptus, light earth, tobacco leaf, dark chocolates and peppercorn.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 20 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is drinking beautifully now. Showing a gorgeous nose, that I kept on smelling for a while.

Feels much younger than it actually is, complex and well balanced.

Good right out of the bottle with grippy tannins, and better after a couple of hours in the decanter.

Peaking now and good by itself or with food. Will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.

A gorgeous wine. I love these older Napa Bordeaux blends.

A blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc. Aged in new American oak barrels for 22 months. Unfiltered and unfined.

13.8% alcohol by volume.

This 13 year old Cabernet Sauvignon was amazing. Full body with plenty of fruit and so amazingly soft. We decanted this bottle about an hour before serving it with a nicely seasoned and grilled sirloin steak with a little soy sauce. Former V Madrone wine club member that is so glad to have waited many years to open this bottle. — 7 months ago

Funny story. I took this bottle in my luggage to Florida. Bubble wrapped the heck out of it and it still broke. Lesson learned. Reminds me of some the middle to late 90 Burgundies that I have had but this is only 5-6 years old. Not sure how much life it has left but it’s good now. — 5 months ago
