A model of balance and restraint. Tough to rate amongst the other Napa monsters we drank tonight. Needs more bottle age.

Well-structured and balanced--hella tight with punch-you-in-the-face oak. If I tasted this blind I'd probably pass it over. I'd rather take $2000 budget elsewhere...

This 2012 tasted like plywood topped with ripe black fruit.

2012- tasted this at the end of March and it was in a closed stage. Now in almost September it tastes like a different wine- expressive and layered.

Of course this bottle would be presented at the 100 point collectors dinner. Simply stated: complete elegance! My favorite style of Bordeaux. Complex aromatics and palate with notes of blackberry liqueur, fennel, pencil violets and sweet toasted oak. A perfect bottle!

Still rather tight. Finish sails on and on. Wait a while.

Meer dan €3450 (Vivino). En USD 4195 (Delectable). Hoe fantastisch bij Charles & Helena dat ze hun beste wijn met ons delen. Werd steeds beter naarmate hij langer open stond, een goed ‘cabsav’
