I know it is not possible to have all these be as brilliant as I am saying but it is still delicious from the last time I tried - TRB made and 100% cab - Napa at its best

Deep purplish ruby red. Tons of layers and complexity on the nose with notes of blackberries, cassis, black currants, spices, violets, cinnamon and a touch of dark cocoa. Heavy tannins (7.5/10) with solid structure and full bodied. Earthy texture on the palate and the layers of cinnamon, dark fruits, spices and cassis. Very dry and long finish. Drink till 2030.

What a deal what a deal what a deal - I will put this napa cab up against wines twice it's price - 2 hour decant and it's sings -

Taste is incredible fruit - dark blue and red fruit - highly structured tannins with density and complexity galore - smell works but it will get more aromatic in 2-3 years - If drinking now as I did then please decant

This comes from Tench vineyards - same as the acclaimed bevan - well I say drink this at half the price then you tell me the difference

This is big bold beautiful and I am smiling

Just tried their Stretch Drive earlier this week. Easily to see why this is their flagship bottling.

Dark purplish ruby red. Tons of sweet/baking spices on the nose with some anise, black fruits and toasty oak influence. Heavy tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Very rich and extracted with tons of complexity. Layers of dark cocoa, vanilla, blackberries, blueberries, and dark gravel. Long and lingering finish. Drinking very well right now with around an hour or two decant. Drink till 2030.

What a great surprise! Can’t remember where I read about this, could have been Delectable! It was great!

Medium purple color. Complex nose with cherry, tobacco, and some lovely floral elements. Wine was deep and had character. Cherry fruit with a texture that was pleasing and unique. Medium finish. I’ll buy more if I can find it.

Dark fruit, smooth tannins and well drinkable after 30mins of air and time to settle.
