What a joy to taste well aged, well made Napa Cab. From a tasting of ‘98s from benchmark producers (Phelps, Clos du Val, Burgess) this was a favorite. Soft and velvety texture, very elegant, complex nose, long finish, this wine is what I wish more folks got to experience for the varietal and appellation. There has been a bunch of challenging press lately on Napa and Cab in particular, tasting this will remind us of what we are aiming for in this valley. — 4 years ago

Very nice blend. Had the 2013 with Kim at 1776. Took some time to open but worth the wait. — 5 years ago

Classic and classy with a touch of Brett. Could be a decent right bank really. Maybe a tiny bit tired as well. — 2 years ago

A blend of 62% Merlot, 20% Malbec, 10% Petit Verdot, and 8% Syrah. Candied dark fruits with earthy undertone. Oak is nicely integrated. Supple soft palate. Delicious. — 2 years ago

Forgot about this, found it in the cellar, pulled it out on a whim to have with roasted pork tenderloin with a sherry mustard cream sauce. Absolutely divine. — 5 years ago

What. A. Wine. Very light smell- dark berries, floral, bit of oak. Taste blew me away. Crisp boysenberry that gets jammy as it lingers. In the middle I’m getting a really unique aged taste, dried currants with pleasant oak and floral notes. Feels like a journey with this wine from start to finish. It’s an extremely unique wine from my favorite stop from Napa! I love love LOVE this wine!! — 6 years ago

Immediate throwback to blackberry picking as a child. Delicious (and weirdly nostalgic) rush of forest fruits. — 7 years ago

Wow! PnP. Lovely dark red color. Cedar, anise, dark cherries, cigar box, and a hint of pepper. Could mistake for a classic Bordeaux. Great texture and depth on the palate with the cedar and rustic fruit coming through in an integrated fashion. Medium plus finish. Wish it wasn’t my last bottle :( — 9 months ago

Brighter and more complex than many from California. This wine really came alive with a complex shrimp in caper tomato cream sauce. A real delight. — 7 years ago
