Vine Hill Ranch Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon

Drink it now. Too much wood

Big fruit, blackberry, blueberry, good tannin structure, nice finish. #Oakville #cabernetsauvignon #cab @Cakebread Cellars

Procured via auction. Have had bad bottles before but cork looked solid (used Durand to take no chances).

This bottle was excellent and the wine developed nicely in the glass over about 1.5 hours. Kept in my ETO.

Nice black and dark fruits with a little muscle. Oak integrated and not overpowering.

Lovely pairing with steak.

Good but not great. Soft cork that fell apart and required the Durand. Not a good start. Never really shined the way this vineyard should.

Bad cork totally disintegrated. Wine had some life left but not much.

Single vineyard from Cakebread ... smooth !

2007 beautiful wine once you let it breathe a few mins. Blackberry, tannins and a little peppery not real oaky as others have said in their reviews. I do recommend drinking it soon. Well I had to go back and edit this one. More it breathes the less desirable it becomes. Really past its prime

Not usually a fan of CA Cabernet but this is GOOD!

Tasty, still needs some time. The fruit is softening but the 22 months of oak shows a little heavy
