Easter Sunday and also Q30 - that calls for a wine from the special reserve. This is classic Napa cab, still very structured but with the tannins nicely integrating.

Who said you can’t age California Cabs. Still holding, soft and elegant.

Very Bordeauxesque. Tannins mostly resolved, but taut and minerally with ample dried red fruits. Really a joy to follow over a couple of hours as it just kept getting better.

Black cherry, Violet and sour cherry on the finish - balanced and good structure.

Solid Rutherford characteristics. Served a little too warm, but very expressive nose.

A 68 to behold....these old Inglenooks are harder and harder to find! A lost time of greatness from the early 50's to late 70's for some of these Napa pioneers. This was no exception.

In a great spot. Old school Napa style with tobacco wrapped around the fruit.
