Fruit driven with seducing upper palate acidity and gulpy mouth watering tension. Natural and pure. Holds oxidation for around one hour - be aware. — 8 years ago
Literally mouth watering. Thick, plum coloured, chewy, fruit on the finish. Have with steak and settle for nothing less than that. Decant for hours before drinking if you want the best possible quality. Well done. — 9 years ago
Just love this wine. Need to buy as much as possible as the price will jump up quickly. — 10 years ago
C'est toujours aussi bon. Rose, confiture de fraise, canne à sucre. — 10 years ago
As good an example as is possible to imagine of this wine. Very cloudy, ruby colored in the light. Much more purity on the nose with leather, dried leaves, closet. On the palate the wine still has a red fruit quality alongside gorgeous tar, leather and cloves. Long finish. Drinking this was a lovely way to ring in my birthday. — 7 years ago

Very exceptional Sonoma County, Alexander Valley cab. Starts warm and bold but mellows very, very nicely. Decant if possible. — 9 years ago

Tons of smoke. Like licking a bbq grate, in the best possible way — 10 years ago
Surprisingly tight. This took an hour to open up and reveal the fruit. Lot of structure, good acid. Somewhat underwhelming for all it's potential, yet ultimately it was well-received. I've had better, more memorable experiences with Jones. Possible bottle variation? — 10 years ago
Petrol. Peach and apricot. Smell and think it’s sweet but totally dry. Incredibly smooth texturally. Like desiccated fruit in Vaseline (in the best way possible) — 8 years ago
Cork was in excellent shape for being a 1998. The wine is not likely to improve but it’s a solid wine now and still has life left. Medium body, medium acidity and gripping tannin but not harsh. The fruit has given way to earthier tones with a bit of Brett. There’s a singed element or perhaps tar. Stewed fruit and cigar box as well. This was seemingly better on day 2, if that is even possible (though tightly corked overnight). This I’m bumping this to the 90s. — 8 years ago
Lots of earth. Pretty acidic. Long finish. Overall double thumbs up. Definite repeat when possible. — 10 years ago
