Another great round for the flavorful bird , the taste is like apple juice if it was not sweet and had embodied every beutiful flavor of a white wine. — 8 years ago

If I'd known then what I know now. I find cab sav is most often a purchase based on speculation - they're frequently released far too young and are pretty much undrinkable in their youth. All overpowering tannin and intensity. This is an example of one very much worth the wait. Cool climate elegance combined with concentrated fruit and all sorts of complex notes layered throughout: menthol, cedar, blackcurrant, spice, hints of dusty chocolate and gently perfumed oak. Still has years ahead of it. Can't wait for dinner to finish cooking so I can sock it back with a rump steak. Should have bought more way back when! — 9 years ago
Beautiful from start to finish. Beautiful color, beautiful nose, and such a beautiful song on your palate. Truly memorable!

Needed a couple of hours to properly open up but then came the pepper and spicy blackberry. Great stuff. Still plenty of life in it. — 10 years ago

Color is like liquid copper, amazing. Took about an hour to open, then nearly as good as upon release, nice acid, Loire Cab Franc, tart strawberry on the palate. One more bottle and we're clean out, loved this wine, only found it once. One of our favorite bottles, with a bird on it! — 8 years ago

Lucious wine full of ripe blackberries. Not overly spiced and exceptionally smooth. Perfect with a simple filler steak followed by cheese. — 9 years ago
Medium bodied, tiny touch on the sweeter side but still dry. It is a rosé. — 10 years ago
Infanticide. Served with the pasta course at the Charlie Bird pop up in Aspen. — 10 years ago
Favorite wine overall of trip home, need to have this again in 15 years, but showing beautifully now as well. Pungent, lifted nose of floral cranberries and cherries, fur and stock, clove and orange, mesmerizing and deep...the palate was saturated in flavor, but so airy and graceful i nearly cried. Like a master violinist playing the strings of your nerves, this wine paralyzed me with its song. Father preferred bonnes mares, for me its the beze. Power without weight, carrying itself with the utmost of grace. Phenomenal. 2008 vintage. — 10 years ago
Love this every vintage & every different bird. — 11 years ago
