Silky and soft. Great price for a single vineyard Oakville cab, too.

This is a big, juicy Cabernet with plenty of junk in the trunk. Smooth with flavors of blackberry and black cherry on palate with notes of chocolate in the finish. This wine is amazing.

A nice balanced Cab but beyond that, nothing particularly exciting. Easy early afternoon wine with some hard cheese.

A smooth and easy drinking Cab with the flavor profile of a much bigger wine. Tannins are velvety, great finish but doesn't require as much chewing as some other Cabs its same age

Ok. A little misplaced ripeness.

A delicious small production single vineyard wine from Napa's Oakville AVA, this Cab has dark coffee flavors up front, with a medium high structure and a tingly slightly oaky finish. Decant!

11/2021. Back label states limited release without reference to quantity. Good medium bodied cab. Does well on the palate but nothing extraordinary. Good week night cab. It paired well with the red snapper at Mr. Friendly’s.

Deep violet color. Intense black currant/raspberry/cherry aromas and flavors. Some nice cola and dark chocolate notes on the mid pallet. Spicy finish. Tangy and intense.
