Dead sexy oaky says JD. Refined and balanced. Good right out of the bottle after opening can only improve with some time

Complex and bold Cabernet with a real sense of place from high on the mountaintops. Could stand up to long term cellar and drink beautifully just like most wines from Laurel Glen, Bettina Sichel & her team.

Really blossomed after an hour open. Starts off with graphite and has lots of red cherry. Becomes well-integrated with bright acidity and a fruit punch sweetness. Crazy black pepper nose

Opened a bit thin but blossomed nicely after 2 hrs of air. Primarily red fruits on the palate with a tart edge that’s refreshing; no excessive sweetness here. Lacking a little tannic presence in the finish, where the weight seemed once more to drop off. All in all, a nice mid-week bottle.

Decent basic Cab. Fine for hanging out.

A belated birthday treat courtesy of Daragh and Kara. Great acidity and tannin providing a great frame for the fruit, herb and earth notes. A true delight!

Wow... Always overlooked because it's not from Napa... Lovely mountain fruit with cocoa and cedar. Lots of love was put forth and it shows. Such a treat to have!

Gun powder, black fruit; persistent, but not overwhelming tannin; soft overall
