Still a wonderful mouth feel. Maybe a touch of cocoa, holding up well with burrata, tomato.

Remarkably soft for a young-ish Napa cab! Blueberry and dark red fruit with subtle oak tones. Some tannic structure on the back end suggesting that this wine has an ongoing life in the cellar.

2011 vintage. Nice nose of black cherry. Big and complex. Cherry, leather and hints of spice. Smooth finish.

2013 vintage. First bottle of 2013. A subtle cherry nose. Big smooth and complex. Cherry and leather come through with a spice finish. Probably needs more time!

Butter notes on a cab. Interesting but outstanding with all of the backbone Anomaly flavors. Standard Napa cab but not standard on the first layer compared to the nose.

2011 vintage. Anomaly's first year of Designation. Big and complex. Nice nose, spice dominates the finish but smooth flavors of black cherry & currant hit the palette initially.
