A visit from ol reliable while out and about tonight. When Frank Family is on, it's delicious, just like this '13. Drinking really nice at a young age. Epitomizes Napa Cabs currently with bold and fruit driven flavors. A lot of red fruits on the nose like raspberries, but the darker blueberries came through on the tongue. The fruit seems a bit extracted...medium oak presence. This is a crowd pleaser when needing to satisfy a large group.
Happiest of New Years to my DL family. 2016 was my first DL year, and it's been a great experience getting to share great wines with y'all. Thank you for your insights...it's been an honor. Cheers to 2017!

Young Beaujolais-born winemaker David Large serves the northern Rhone's great wine; and gets the biodynamic cred in the mix; #mchapoutier #rhone #tainlhermitage #syrah #coterotie #uncorkedandcultivated #wineandfoodtour #france2015 #drinkrhone — 11 years ago

Medium nose, dark sweet fruit, vanilla and licorice. Medium to large body, potent fruit and tannins, fresh acidity, long finnish. Great potential next 5-10 years. — 8 years ago
