Absolutely smoking hot tonight. Competed with the Mica and Modus Sage Ridge. Coravin’d and presented so well. Soft and pure palate. Blueberry pie nose. Medium tannins with a broad shouldered structure. Nice balance with excellent weight and texture. Bright acidity and sweetness finished off what I considered to be the best vintage I’ve tasted from Sinegal

Our favorite Napa cab in the $70 price bracket. Nose displays cherries and coffee. Palate is so well balanced with sage, sandalwood and soft brown sugar. Finish extends and expands. Youthful and energetic.

Swirling violets. As this opens it reveals more and more candied floral notes. Clean and suave with silky tannins. Really pretty, just subacid and a little sweet on the finish for my taste.

Sinegal makes beautiful Cabs. In the heart of St. Helena. Grapes sourced nearby and via estate vines.

Regardless of the vintage, this is so consistent.

13’ Sinegal Cabernet. A beautiful purple color, offers up blackberry, crème de cassis, charcoal & licorice. Full-bodied, yet still youthful & tight.

Celebrating the installation of the second flight of floating stairs. Still needs the detail to complete the ensemble, but otherwise, wifey and I are happy with the outcome.
The 2015 Sinegal cab is our fave. Prior notes apply.
