Ovid

Experiment K 1.5 2005

Always love Experiment from Ovid. The 2005 was more cab franc dominant and it's showing well with another decade or so left in the tank. — 11 years ago

Screaming Eagle

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 1993

1993 Screaming Eagle Cab. Drank at Press w K, Iana, S, and AG. Such a treat and very interesting as Kplanned it as a comp with the 1991 Harlan. For the first hour or so, we all favored the SE. Super unctuous and round, like velvet in the mouth. Then the wines came to temp and the picture completely changed and we all grew to favor the Harlan. Interestingly, the SE got flabby and very, very sweet. A thought it was bc it lacked the tannins that the Harlan showed. Anyway, SE turned almoSt port-like, with a nose of dates, raisins, and prunes. Amazing and fun to see the change throughout the night. — 10 years ago

Wow! Stunningly unctuous, viscous, mouth-coatingly cotton candy-like, sensual experience. Hopefully you all get an opportunity to visit this exotic destination. — 10 years ago
