Chardonnay, Russian River Valley. Unctuous, sleek and full bodied all at the same time. Gotta love the deft acidity, fresh fruit and rich toasty oak. — 9 years ago

Staglin Family Vineyard

Rutherford Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2001

Almost 2 yrs ago I wrote: "Half way through a case and the romance deepens. Giant scorched earth and oiled leather nose. Epic battle of extracted dark-red fruit sweetness and a light juicy acidity. All in a smooth-as-silk package. Ageing so gracefully, 10+ years from peaking." After last night I'll add: probably peaked after 2 hr decant, no need to wait but this has the tannins and pure extracted fruit to take it at least 10 more years. — 9 years ago
