Popped and poured. Deep ruby color with moderate staining of the tears. Developing, with a fairly becoming nose with ripe black plums, dark bramble fruit, vanilla, some pipe tobacco, some chocolate and baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins and medium(+?) acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. It’s really primary now but it should drink better after 2025 and through 2034. — 7 months ago

We had the 2014 Vintage on 7/15-16/23. An excellent Cab with tastes of black cherry, blueberry, oak, vanilla and lavender. Full bodied, fruit forward and well balanced. The tannins are all smoothed out. Outstanding! — 10 months ago

Really good but drink around now. Stewed fruits but still fresh. Not a Bordeaux style but a bit larger with elegant and a bit of power. Glad I could share this with my folks. Fruits are rhubarb now after about an hour. Leaning down a little but still good. Definitely open the bottle of you have it soon imo — 8 months ago

Deep ruby/purple. Chocolate, spice, tobacco, dried fruit, plum, and minerality on the nose. Smooth finish with silky tannins. Fantastic and a true reflection of #stagsleap, #napa, #baldacciwinery — 10 years ago

Might have lost its luster. Just not what I've expected from a cellar aged Cab from Hall. Gave it a 2 hr decant. Still has plenty of balance and structure. Just lost some of its fruit and luster. Medium finish. — 9 months ago

Was hoping to like this but it was a solid if unmemorable CA Cab. Nothing much to say which is all I have to say…. — 2 years ago

9.1

Quite dark colored. Young nose with fruits, spices, fresh grass and strength can be felt. On the palate it’s balanced between the fruit flavors and the oak well integrated by the way, long finish and no heaviness. Excellent (91) — 9 years ago
