A wine to drink a lot of - thank goodness it only comes in mags. Bravo to @Dan O'Brien for doing something special, soulful and different. High toned Cab Franc - cranberry, thyme, sandalwood, vanilla bean, green olive. Just delicious. $60 a mag is a steal. — 9 years ago
Still young, but very tasty , cherry, plum, tannins, smooth, peppery at the end. A very nice Cabernet Franc from O'brien Estates. Get some if you can and put it away. — 10 years ago
Very precise varietal aromatics, bright cherry and herb filled flavors, very subtle - less is more is the hallmark of this inaugural release from Dan O'Brien. From Chalk Hill appellation. — 11 years ago

Tasting notes from the O'Brien Estate wine dinner...this Chardonnay is absolutely breathtaking. The balance of oak, acidity and fruits is excellent. This is hands down one of the better Chardonnays I've tasted. — 9 years ago

Block 5, 2009. Rich dark fruit, chocolate, vanilla on the nose, tons of baking spice. Like a Merlot that wants to be a syrah, in a wonderful way. — 9 years ago
