This is an intense, in your face with fruit wine without feeling over extracted. Silky smooth, easy drinking and ready to roll. Great QPR. I have been a long-time fan of his Cab Franc and this Cab Sauv didn't disappoint.

Dense, dark and concentrated red and black fruit. Silky and pure. Still drinking wonderfully.

Great prelude to 2016 Thanksgiving dinner. Bold, yet smooth,almost to a fault. Purchased in Napa Valley in 2010.

Needs time. I wish I had another to open 5+ years from now. That being said, still 90th percentile for me!

Dense with cassis followed by tobacco and some 'meat-like' after flavors. Very suitable with the wood grilled tri-tip to-come. At 14.5% alcohol, interesting to see what happens overture course but this is a very well-made Cali cab.
