Very interesting. I want to see how this wine will perform in a couple years

Fantastic wine that I just had to try early. Big, beautiful, with an amazing finish. I want more. Going to get better with time.

Dark, dark fruit, black cherry, vanilla oak on the finish. Well developed tannic structure that supports a richness that is well appreciated. Let your impatience open a bottle now, and cellar the rest for later!

Release is $135.00, best QPR of any wine TRB makes IMO
Down to 2 bottles after tonight.
RIVERS MARIE notes,
New to our lineup but certainly not new to the legacy of Napa, we are excited to be starting this relationship in such a great vintage. This is one of those wines we knew was destined for greatness when we pressed it. It was intensely aromatic in fermenter and colored up quickly. The palate held quite a bit in reserve while first in barrel taking on more of a linear profile. The last six months in barrel, the wine grew broader, opening up to grilled meats, garrigue, underbrush and blueberries. There is an exotic floral note on the nose that hints at the vineyard's base of Howell Mountain location. Framing acidity keeps the wine from ever growing tiresome despite its density. There's nothing that tastes quite like this storied site and we hop to continue to preserve and further the legacy of what Herb and Jennifer Lamb have created here. 160 cases produced. | Rivers-Marie

Sticking with my 9.9 from last time,
Get some if you haven’t already.
I’d grab the Rivers marie Cabs for the price compared to any of the other wines TRB makes, best deal in town

Nice wine! Cork expansion has me concerned, not sure why they shipped Ups ground instead of FedEx 2 day, oh wait. 💰,
Easy 97-100 as Jeb has it rated
