I’ve enjoyed the 2009 CA cabs! This was nice on the fruit but not overwhelming. Very drinkable

Two of my favorite things: trefethen cab and the bachelor. This bottle was easy drinking from the minute it was opened without decant.

The 2009 vintage was fabulous! Black cherry, leather, black pepper, and vanilla notes.

Very concentrated with lots of fresh, juicy fruit--blueberries, blackberries and black currant. Undergrowth, spice, tobacco, American oak. Very tasty.
