The acidity is like a punch in the face - in a good way! Very dry with a bit of sunny currant. — 7 years ago

Another great 2005, these are ready to go.
2002 Still my favorite though .
Best 05 is Shafer & Vineyard 29 estate in my opinion. You must try them both out of a mag preferably — 8 years ago

Quite amazing. Dried prunes and cloves on the nose mature and evolved. Then raspberry jam in the glass with tons of acidity and perhaps a hint of coffee this is not a fruitbomb! — 9 years ago

My favorite Napa field blend. Huge dark fruit nose., not for the faint of heart!! It is drinking incredibly well. Decanted 6 hours prior to drinking... was silky smooth yet with incredible intensity and depths of flavored. 😍 love it! This was the 3rd wine opened — 10 years ago

Aging nicely. When I tried this one a few years ago, I did not care for it, but today this one rocks. 2007 still has lots of fruits left. Delicious. — 10 years ago

Always good to have a taste of home, and very little does that better than Gimblett Gravels Syrah. Great dark fruit, showing excellent leathery tones. — 8 years ago

A great '94 Old Hill still cruising along. Beautiful aged Zinfandel nose of red cherries and mint. Still firmly tannic. — 9 years ago

Wonderful blend of primarily Malbec,Cab Sav, Petit Verdot, Syrah and Carmenere. So this 2011 has great young jammy fruit but it is not a fruit bomb in that it has complexity. — 9 years ago

I drank this at their open house, and at the time I thought it was one of the best 2011's we tasted. This is another example of a wine that will have the "experts" pondering the 2011 vintage. This may be similar to a 2003 for selected wineries. I'll go on the record that I like it - a lot. — 10 years ago

Amazing how unique these three wines are. There are obviously, in the grand scheme of things, more similarities than differences between them, but the differences are tangible. For 2015, the VH has dark explosive nose, somewhat gritty tannins, and ripe dark berry core. — 8 years ago

Nose of tobacco, spice box and barrel toast. On the palette, the tannins are a touch gnarly, but provide texture and structure. Plenty of dark berry fruits blend with a hint of cloves and cinnamon. Not as sweet as I expected. This needs air-time, but is showing well. — 9 years ago

One of my favorite Chardonnays. Smooth with a little bit of an oaky flavor. — 9 years ago

9.1

Beautiful floral hints on the nose don't quite prepare you for the explosion of intricate tastes that hit your palate. Lots of plum, currant, mocha and spice make this a fun wine to drink. Tannins are elegant and the acidity is just right making this a very well balanced wine. I love everything I've tasted from this winery! — 10 years ago
