Nice enough, but expect more from a 100% Cab. Not near as complex as you'd expect. And Chris Gorman's collaborative efforts are usually my favorites here. 14.9 ABV. Nice enough, but nothing unique or multi layered about it. Too bad, higher expectations. — 7 years ago

Really great Bordeaux style red from Washington State. Winemaker Chris Peterson, formerly of DeLille Cellars. Great for the price too, can likely lay down for 5 or 10 years — 9 years ago

This is a partnership with Adrian Hoffman. This wine creates a body glow like I've not experienced. The mouth entry just is an OMG long moment. The lush fruits explode and layer over your palate. Ripe, lush, fruits of; blueberries, turning dark cassis, black plum, blackberries, warm soft spices; Clove, nutmeg, cinnamon & hints of vanilla, light baking spices, black tea, plum cake, light tarry notes. Then, the lighter red fruits unfold as it sits on the palate. Perfect wine harmony!!! 4 years in oak. — 7 years ago

Way too young now but destined for greatness. Chris Howell knows how to showcase what the mountain gives him. This wine, with its hints of well integrated Brett, is not only distinctive for Napa, but stands out against others from the mountain AVAs. Cellar for a long time! — 9 years ago

I've recently had Dick Vermeil and Drew Bledsoe's wines but this one gets my vote for best football themed steakhouse Cab. Well done by Dan Marino and Damon Huard (and of course the winemaker Chris Peterson). This is way too young, but I look forward to checking in on these in a few years. — 9 years ago

A little Ruth's Chris for a late dinner. The boss picked a great bottle. I'm not sure how much input he gave, but turned out well. I just hope he's paying. — 10 years ago

The Hoffman was nearly the wine of the tasting. Warm fruits; of blue & blackberries slowly lift out of the glass with supple soft spices. It was a hard call to say, was it warm fruit pie or was it more like pudding? I'd say both. The spices in this wine lifted off your palate like warm sun on ground water creating rising steam. You cannot only sense it, you can see them as you sip it. Blackberries, blueberries, black plum, rhubarb, baked cranberries & strawberries follow, black licorice, used leather, dry stems, underbrush, crushed rocks, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, Christmas cake and used coffee grounds. Perfect harmony in body, texture. length, balance, acidity and finish. 5 years in oak. — 7 years ago

Marsanne + Roussanne + Acacia barrel = sappy, honeyed, spicy apricot deliciousness. This has the structure to live forever; I'll never know, can't stop drinking it now. @Chris Broomell kills it again. — 9 years ago
