Mid level Cab from the Bounty Hunter in downtown Napa. Complexity all around. Nose is simmering raspberry jam, cinnamon, and coffee. Layered palate with semi-tart red jammy fruit, chocolate, earth, and leather. Massively tannic finish. Well worth the release price. If you haven't been, it's a great place to kick off or finish a day in Napa. Their BBQ is some of the best around. — 8 years ago
Nice Pinot that should go well with our farmers market bounty - baby eggplant, basil, tomatoes and ground beef. Light and dry with a moderate tartness, light to medium fruit and a nice finish. — 9 years ago
On a hot summer night [cue Sammy Hagar] this guy benefitted from some cooling before releasing its dark fruit bounty. — 10 years ago

Some nights, simple is best.
I have always had a soft spot for blueberry-style wines, so this Mead based version is hitting my palate just great. Good acidity from the berries, beautiful and lightly translucent ruby color, pefect balance on the honey side, sweetness is just noticable. — 8 years ago

On the nose, bold, ripe fruits of; blackberries, boysenberries, huckleberries, blueberries, dark cherries & black plum. Warm baking baking spices, mocha, light caramel, black cherry liqueur notes, rich dark soils, perfumed violets & lilacs. The body is round and full with powdery tannins. The fruits sing on the palate. There is waves of fruit, earth and florals that swirl and dance across your palette. The fruits are ripe, sweet and lush; blackberries, boysenberries, huckleberries, blueberries, dark cherries, black plum with juicy strawberries coming on strong at the mid palate. Black cherry cola/licorice, vanilla, light caramel, mocha, semi-sweet loamy dry soils, just a touch of crushed rock powder, soft spice-box, fresh tobacco leaf, perfumed violets & lilacs, round, rich, palate raining acidity and finish that is simply long, well balanced with perfect structure/length/tension and above all beautiful and elegant. It just swirls and dances endlessly & gloriously in the mouth. What mouth harmony! Photos of, vines in Stags Leap, Charles Hendricks, ripe fruit for the picking and one of mine and Charles favorite paintings. Producer notes and history...Charles Hendricks is one of the best Winemakers in Napa Valley. He is well grounded in the science of winemaking. As a 1982 UC Davis viticulture graduate, Charles was able to tailor his own curriculum, and was one of the earliest to integrate winemaking and viticulture course work. Having knowledge of both viticulture and enology forms the bases for well-rounded winemaking under varying circumstances; this is the making of a great Winemaker & consultant. His greatest gift is the ability to make wines the are elegant, beautiful and smooth young but will age effortlessly. Charles Hendricks sees himself as an assistant to the natural bounty of the vineyards. Using his knowledge and experience to guide and coax the very best from the wine grapes. Charles believes in minimal intervention in the wine cellar, but knows that if we leave nature completely on it own, we would be in the vinegar business! To quote him, “It is a wonderful game of hide and seek that we play with Mother Nature…It is natures glory to conceal, and the winemakers glory to reveal, to discover and to persuade the grapes to unveil their highest potential, It is the playfulness of guessing when and how much to step in, that is at the heart of the winemakers’ task." So true in his case. Charles makes his own label wines only when he has the very best of fruit. He is also is the Winemaker for Hope & Grace and until recently was the Winemaker for; Regusci, James Cole and T-Vine. In previous years, he's worked with; Viader, Barnett Vineyards & Paoletti Vineyards. He is truly a gifted Winemaker. If you are able, seek out and try his Henrick's Cabernet & Santa Lucia Pinot Noir, you absolutely won't regret it! @Paul Treadway Huntington Beacher — 8 years ago
Full-bodied, rich and viscous – filling the mouth with juicy, sweet black currant and incense along with hints of dark cherry supported by a bounty of toasty oak. This is big and extracted yet maintains a silky smooth, almost creamy mouthfeel. The finish benefits from polished, fully-integrated tannin. — 10 years ago
