Niebaum-Coppola
Cask Cabernet Sauvignon
Vintage Scott McLeod! Poetry in a glass. This 2006 vintage perhaps exceeds the otherwise superlative 2007 and 2008 releases, though perhaps that is simply the recency effect. A perfect Rutherford Cab, estate grown and containing the requisite dark cherries, mocha, and dust. Perhaps my Platonic ideal for this region. Huzzah! πΊπ·π

Jul 27th, 2015Perfect! The needed 15 minutes to open up. The fruit came out and we really enjoyed it. You get the American oak shining through. For 2001 it was great. At its peak?

Nov 16th, 2014Very rich and full bodied. Packed with dark fruits. Quite supple for a 2006 Napa Cab.

Oct 20th, 2014Wow this being 2007 really has such a silky smooth finish. Still the body off a full cab
