Haven’t had this in a while but it was a good go to cab for me at one point. I remember it being mid moderately bold and pleasantly integrated in relation to its age. At $20 this one is on par with a label such as Decoy. My recollection is this one is pretty bright and warm as opposed to that big cab backbone. So it’s more of an everyday selection. — 5 years ago

Bland testing that included this wine, Decoy, Freemark Abbey and Black Stallion. This cab was sweeter than the other three and it was not my favorite. It is drinkable. — 6 years ago

Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2016

This is probably the best Sauvignon Blanc I’ve ever had. Huge and complex nose. Blows the Decoy SB out of the water. And it drinks silky smooth. Rich and unctuous. Gorgeous. — 7 years ago

Sine Qua Non

Syrah The 17Th Nail In My Cranium Eleven Confessions Sta. Rita Hills 2005

Dark as night in the glass with some purple hues, beckoning aromas of spice, clove and cooked red fruits--probably the most distinctive, inviting nose I've encountered in a SQN...layers and layers of deep flavors of expresso, beef tenderloin, sausage infused marinara and bay leaf (what?) that all rolls in to a sensational full, warm, lush, smooth finish. The weight in the mid palate had me prepared for some bite but I got exactly the opposite--a warm satisfying delicious Father's Day embrace. Happy Father's Day to me! This was a ridiculously transcendent CA Syrah moment for me. Did I mention I gave my Dad only a glass and hoarded the rest for my personal consumption....all the while tossing decoy wines at my in-laws. Sometimes greed is good--Gordon Gekko would have been proud. — 10 years ago

Sure, oak is prominent here, but to me it’s more of a decoy for the lovely fresh stone fruit core and enhances the nuances of cantaloupe, lime, honeysuckle, and light citrus. Acidity is round yet firm, good enough to give the richly textured palate a lift.
I usually prefer more saline and mineral, but this is undeniably well made and delicious. And quite elegant.
