Napa Valley, California, USA
This is a fastball straight down the middle of the plate. Popped and poured. On the nose, pipe tobacco, old leather shoe, dill, and green olives. On the palate, cassis, blackberry, and baking spice. The oak is integrating well...yet tannins are still pretty firm. Good acid. Long finish. Really great showing. I think these just need a little bottle age to become more interesting.

Deep, fully ripe fruit, warm vanilla, supple tannins, and a long finish made this Cab a hit at the table. Drinks above its price.

Super smooth. Not tangy or bitter, which excites me. But sweet. Drank it with spicy chicken and it held its own big time.

Disappointing. Received as a gift and was expecting big things as I’ve had numerous Rombauer wines. But this one didn’t cut it, especially for the price

Dark berry and black cherry, subtle vanilla and grippy tannins. The alcohol is showing a little too much to be an excellent wine, but overall very nice.
