2002 out of magnum. Wine of the night. Wouldn't have guessed it was 13 years old.

2002, this wine has reached the age of full potential. Full bodied notes, dark tannins and dark purple in color. A true gem.

2010 Viader Red - 72% Cab, 28% Franc
The Cab Franc adds a nice touch to the traditional napa valley cab profile.

Amazing wine to celebrate my niece's bday. Thankfully she's 18 and left more for me ...

Holding up very well! Wish I would've asked for the decanter in order to catch some subtleties but very please with the wine from start to finish.

1999 vt. Lovely bouquet with a whiff of tobacco laced smoky tone and damp earth the currant fruit shows through as well developed Cab. Still vibrant well structured on pallet. We like!
