An ok Cab. Not as big of mouth feel as I would like, but good flavors of cherries and a bit of spice. Typical restaurant cab.

A bit young but we needed a steak wine in a hurry! Hits the spot! Delish.

2014 vintage "40th anniversary Reserve" with red velvet label. Blend of different vineyards, mainly Rutherford. Medium to full-bodied with pure black fruit, elegance and tannin as velvety as the label suggests. Great value too for a Napa cab.

Dark, rich, and dusty. It's hard to avoid the power of suggestion, but this really is liquid velvet.

For the price, an outstanding effort from the team at Raymond. One of their best NVR's to date. Stephanie Putnam and her team have truly elevated their efforts of the years and for their basic Napa Cab, this is truly an outstanding effort.

Ruby color, sorrel, lavender, raspberry smell, taste is similar in profile, wet, with a warm acidic finish
