Actually from Napa Valley.

Medium garnet red. Aged nose with cinnamon, damp forest floor, plums, cigar box and a bit dirty. Medium tannins (5/10) and medium bodied. Seems to be getting a little tired. Notes of stewed plums, cedar, truffles and damp forest floor. Medium to medium plus finish. Drink now.

This is a young red with gobs of black fruit; black raspberries, black plums, and blackberry jam. Everything is encased in cinnamon, cocoa powder, and cedar. Alcohol is high, but stays grounded under the control of firm tannins and soft acidity. Creamy finish. #nakedwines

Another winner from Mr. Peterson,this Cabernet is made in the style of the prior vintages: smooth, creamy, and fruit forward. The primary flavors are cherry, blueberry, and red currant. The tannic structure is on the larger side of medium, with a bit of acidity to cut the thickness.

Very good CS with a nice creamy mouthfeel, with lots of caramel oak. This wine will improve with aging or decanting.

Bit of a wet basement smell, but tastes of plums and dark fruit.

Always one of my favorites. The fruit, leather, and spice notes give it a lush, heady quality that feels indulgent for the price.

Tannic and tart; not a lot of fruit going on here. Not a fan.
