Estate Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Big. Beautiful black fruit.

Dense black cherry/black raspberry jam, dark chocolate, tobacco, and chewy tannins. Very expressive and explosive in structure and intensity. Will be long lived. Needs lots of time to unfurl its bounty of pent up flavor

Opulent and a bit salty. There was definitely a character shift in the early 2000s. It doesn't taste like it used to.

Not remembering that I’ve had one of these for awhile so I decided it was time. Home for a week before heading back to Houston. Planning to take an assorted case from the collection back with me. Performing as expected.

Unbelievable fruit combined with a really nice structure, drinks like a wine that can stand up to come cellaring but is ready to be consumed now if you’re in the mood...def need some time to open

I love this stuff. 67% cab franc. Berries, rich and chewy. Some tobacco. Got better the longer it was open

Too young. Will drink nicely at later time. Very tight.

Would have expected more body, surprisingly smooth/elegant.

Dark fruit and pencil shavings.

Tasty wine with Roy's ribeye.
