Admittedly this is probably a little too generous, but we've had nothing but fantastic experiences with Broman. Jill found the 2007 in the basement of a wine shop in San Diego a couple years ago, and it was fantastic. Small production family operation, very gracious people... And the wine, if you can find it, is a wonderful value. The nose on this is beautiful, the fruit and tannins are balanced. Everything you want in a Napa cabernet. A quick decant will be rewarded.

Full bodied, full of dark fruit and earthy tones, yet surprisingly bright acidity. Unfortunate bit of heat on the finish, but not enough to detract fro a quality wine. Delicious.

I'm always going to rate Broman higher than most people will say it deserves, but it's a great wine at a great price made by great people. And that's part of the magic of wine. This is the second of two bottles we brought home from a visit with the owners. The first bottle we drank a few months ago, and it seemed middle aged with plenty of fruit. This bottle was more austere and showed much less fruit. This reminded me of a 30 year old Brane Cantenac we had 10 years ago.
