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)

Blackberry, dark cherry, great texture on this wine... long finish with some coffee and chocolate. Nice!

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+.

Dark 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 fruit forward, didn’t see the tannins. Nice but needs more time.
