This lovely Pinot Noir shows a compelling aroma of clove, cherry, raspberry, black tea with soft tannins and a refreshing finish. I’d drink it again! — 10 days ago

Scratches that itch. Hard to tell whether it’s a “true champagne” or a very good cremant, but at closeout prices who cares? 90. — 2 months ago

This bottle is bound to make any day that much better. It’s young but composed with ample elegance and perfect balance. A true gem, even at this age. — 3 months ago

Nice but not quite at the true top level, especially given the price. Decanted 4 hours which is necessary at this point. Nice pairing with a big T-bone steak cooked in the Tuscan style. Could use more acid on the finish. Probably needs a few years to come together. — 6 months ago

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Inky in color with a short reddish rim. Not showing much age.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, dried figs, raisins, cedar, licorice, vanilla, tobacco, herbs, spices, cola, light eucalyptus and black pepper

Long finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

This is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Rich, extracted and fruit forward. Soft and elegant, yet in your face kind of wine. Tangy and interesting.

Good right out of the bottle and a great pop and pour wine, with a great nose, right out of the bottle.

This 14 year old Napa Cabernet is drinking beautifully now. Big and juicy. Tannins are nicely integrated by now, and so is the alcohol.

Peaking now and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Nicely balanced at this point, and showing a smooth mouthfeel. Complex and interesting by itself as a sipping wine, to share with good friends. It's a shame that this rare wine is no longer being produced.

A great sipping wine that will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.

15.4% alcohol by volume.

94 points.

$100 (at release). — 4 months ago
