Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon

Dark cassis, beautiful; blackberries, dark cherries, intense, tannins still show some chewiness but are quite enjoyable, mocha, beautifully executed baking spices with more concentrated than the others in our tasting. This is very good but I’d give it another 3-5 years in bottle.

Not much else I can say other than this is one of the silkiest wines I've drank this year. Like bu-ddah! From mag @Pignetti's Restaurant.

Still a lot of oak imprint.

96+

Lush fruit giving way to a hint of oak, and a grippy finish

2005 Lokoya Cab
Wow this stuff is the bomb. I grabbed this bottle out of my cellar without realizing what a serious wine it is. One sip told me this is one impressive wine. A hige wine with tons of fruit and concetnration. This is a beast now but could be so beautiful down thw road. Still a youngster. It needs another 5-10 years to calm down. I really want to taste this in 6+ years and see how it has evolved.

More structure than the 2006. Bit tighter in mid palate. Less fruit but it delivers.

Quite acidic & tannic, though full bodied so still drinkable
