A charming left bank blend with a high percentage of CF for 15’. Blueberry, cassis, espresso, dried herbs, and lavender. Hint of crushed rocks too. Medium to full body. A harmonious palate with round gentle acidity, lush texture, and grainy yet polished firm elegant tannins. Lingering lightly candied finish.
Finesse and classy, yet so approachable. — 5 years ago

Near perfection....smooth butterscotch, carmel, cream with just enough complex apple and cinnamon spice on the nose. Medium body with a finish that lasts for minutes. My wife’s birth year and it’s nearly as impressive as she is. Worth every single penny!!! — 7 years ago

Deep Ruby with a Smoky floral nose that shows more syrah than Grenache at this point. Nice violet and forest floor notes. A bit tight at first but broadens on the palate with sit and the. Firm moderate tannins - a lovely beefy wine. — 8 years ago

Amazing Bordeaux blend of Sauv. Blanc and Semillion. It has a very viscous mouth feel which reminded me of an SQN wine. — 11 years ago

Secondary notes coming through with a whiff of sherry then lemon, some sweetness. There’s lovely balance and complexity in the mid palate and a sophisticated finish. A good time to drink this. — 6 years ago

Continuing our way through Hall's line-up. This was my father-in-law's pick to go along steaks and it was delicious. More bright and red fruit dominant than most Hall cabs (this is 100% cab). Black cherry and violet on the nose. Front palate gives way to a gigantic mid palate and finish full of dusty traits, cherries, blackberries and raspberries. Hall is always so consistent in their wines. Worthy of a club membership. Happy Father's Day! — 9 years ago

Love the 2002 CDC. Had it the week before in a Coeur de Cuvée vertical tasting, and it was tired. Not this one. It was singing. Probably on a plateau now. — 7 years ago

The sommelier described this selection as fruit forward, but I respectfully disagree. I experienced more minerals than anything else, which seems consistent with the fact that this delicate tasting wine is grown directly in the limestone bedrock, with very little soil. Hints of pepper rounded out the flavors. Excellent! Paired well with langoustines and lamb. — 8 years ago
