This afternoon/evening was our first of two baby showers. Not only were we surrounded by friends & family, but we were also surrounded by some good wine & other drinks. This was one of the selections at our whisk(e)y & cigar bar.

Very smooth; paired nicely with a maduro. — 5 years ago
Premier nez Laurence me souffle fumée... je comprends bien son descriptif que j’associe plus à un côté cendré qu’on retrouve chez DRC. Au nez on a aussi de la rose, des fruits rouges et légèrement un peu de vanille. En bouche, ca explose, ca tapisse, c’est soyeux, mais on voit toutes les saveurs un peu sur la retenue. Belle longue finale. Sera encore plus harmonieux dans 5 ans. — 6 years ago
Ce vin est l'ideal. Comme un vieux pote a qui l'on fait confiance et que l'on ne voit malheureusement pas assez — 7 years ago
Drew at Harper Voit uses a lite hand when it comes to crafting wines. Got two and decided to open one to see how it's tasting at such a young age. Right out of the bottle with no time to breath...exceptional at such a young age. Delicate and pure red fruit! Long lush slight smokey finish. — 8 years ago
On the Lawn at Tanglewood for our final evening of the season, pre & post-season the BSO fills the Lawn with Popular Artists. Tonight we're relaxing with Ben Harper and Troy Andrews, aka 'Trombone Shorty'. A lively show is ahead, fingers crossed we're trending more towards the New Orleans funk tonight.
Nose has black cherry buttercream, moist earth, fermented blackberry, cigar box and blueberry skin.
Palate has boysenberry, blackberry, cedar plank and dry earth. Medium-long finish. Decanted +4 hours, yet still needs air and years, future bottles should be 2023+
84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, 5% Merlot, but 100% deliciousness on a standout CA vintage, Paso Robles fruit, yum yum yum yum! — 5 years ago

Belle découverte dans le coin cellier ! Bien équilibré, bon rapport qualité-prix et un bouchon en verre ! Parfait avec des pâtes, pas trop corsé, se voit bien en toute occasion. — 7 years ago

Nose has blend of ripe and under-ripe strawberry, maraschino cherry and rhubarb pastry.
Palate has rehydrated cherry, dried strawberry and hints of fresh green herbs. Nice balance, clean, needs some more air to really get going, our final bottle of the vintage. FAW ♥️♥️ — 5 years ago

One of my favorites so far from the crew at Harper Voit. Candied cherry on the nose, forrest floor. Red currant, muddled blueberries, long peppery finish. Well done Drew! — 8 years ago

Pretty bottle. The higher proof bourbons really push/change your palate or at least expectations. I still enjoy this, mainly for the memories it invokes. — 4 years ago
