One of the best wines I have ever had. Beautiful layered complexity, smooth, classic Napa. Beckstoffer George III vineyard is rightfully legendary. (95 points Robert Parker)

1.5+hr decant. Dark red color with hints of rust and purple. Lovely nose of dark cherries and cedar, which is the highlight. Great texture but restrained and thinning. Starts out like a nice Bordeaux then turns into a classic Napa Cab then becomes very average mid palate. So much promise but doesn’t deliver. Needs more depth and flavor. As the wife said, very nice but probably a ~$50 bottle not an ~$85+.

Jun 18th, 2022Dark red color with purple hues. Fruit forward nose with wood and chocolate elements. Lovely texture. Medium plus depth. Dark fruit but sweeter than I prefer for a Cab. Has some uniqueness to it which I always enjoy seeing.

Very smooth cab. Really nice esp. after few hours. Notes of black berries and licorice. $125 bottle - worth the price!
