9.3

2014 vintage. Slightly lighter than your average BDB. Dirty. Mineralesque. Weighty, then lean power. Quite the concentrated ride. 06.12.25. — 2 days ago

9.4

2022 vintage. This blew the doors off the 2022 Spring Mtn District cab and the 2022 Rattlesnake cab. That doesn't happen often for Napa merlots. 06.11.25. — 4 days ago

9.2

2022 vintage. Steady Crozes-Hermitage performer. Medium-heavy bod. Two years+ should find this firing. 06.11.25. — 4 days ago

9.2

2022 vintage. Medium-medium heavy body. Chalky cherry nose. A waterfall of flavors with both punch and tannins. Was really close to rating this a 9.3 but held back just barely. This VV can go PNP now or stow it away for a decade. It's got plenty of stuffing to survive and thrive. 06.12.25. — 2 days ago

9.1

2019 vintage. A dirty, affordable animal that eschews the lux St. Émmie treatments of today. 06.11.25. — 4 days ago

9.1

2022 vintage. Last year's vintage more than justified the pricing. This one, not so much. 06.11.25. — 4 days ago

9.0

2022 vintage. Good, not great. The 2021 with more intensity/grip and life. 06.11.25. — 4 days ago

9.1

2019 vintage. Not a fan of Amarone but this one comes in slightly less sweet and with decent nuance. 06.11.25. — 4 days ago

9.3

2011 vintage. Excellent nose. Medium body and exacting finish. A deal afoot (along with oodles of other CA 2011 vintage cab concerns) but still a bit too pricey for the QPR. 06.11.25. — 4 days ago
