9.3

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim. Not showing age at all.

Great nose with nice complexity.

Dry on the palate and full bodied with medium acidity.

Showing blackberries, black currants, cooked plums, cedar, tobacco leaf, light earth, herbs and chocolate notes.

Long and elegant finish.

This 18 year old Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley is drinking beautifully now. Rich and elegant. Powerful and fruit forward. Delicious by itself as a sipping wine.

I've had a few vintages of this wine and the 2012 was my favorite so far.

Robert Parker 90 points. Wine Spectator 94 points.

A blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, and 17% Cabernet Franc.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

A little green in flavor (as in unripe), too acidic, but had some elements of tropical fruit, just not full and ripe. Has potential but not the best. — 3 months ago

9.3

2018 vintage. Above-average structure with complimentary fruit. Nicely made. Medium/medium-heavy bod. Plenty of punch and thrust for the new vintage, Napa Cab fans and enuff stuffing to go all 15 rounds for the historians/pathologists. 4.27.24. — 7 months ago

9.0

Really pleasant. Very light and easy drinking; heavy green apple and lemon flavors with apricot. It's got a mineral edge but not in a typical limestone sort of way. Would buy again, but it doesn't last very long, so finish the bottle within a day. Two max. — 8 months ago
