May 22nd, 2016Medium ruby color. Aromas of prunes and espresso (not the best nose). On the palate however, brighter dark fruits (blackberry, black cherry and plum) showed through with additional notes of chocolate, coffee and dried herbs. Medium length and body. Very soft tannins. A bit past its prime but quality was apparent. Thanks for the taste, Petey P!

Oct 7th, 2024What an absolute joy! A generous gift from an old friend, well cellared and in its prime. I think this is what Heidi was thinking when she made the wine. Perfumed aroma, silky on the palate, lots of spice, great acidity really balanced. Pure joy in the glass. I wish more folks had this experience of beautifully aged Napa Valley Cabernet. Then they wouldn’t drink these gems too young. Thanks Richard!
