Nice wine. Not as much depth as other N&N winds — 10 years ago
The peaches are so intense on the nose and palate. Great, great stuff! — 11 years ago
No decant needed. BBQ smoke, black pepper, beefy, fatty, bloody, little funk, slight floral lift at the end. Black fruit, herb and black pepper palate. Medium acid, medium length finish. Really good stuff. Sub $50 N. Rhone that checks all the boxes. — 10 years ago
Actually delectable it's an elegant blend of predominately Cabernet Sauvignon with Malbec, Merlot and Petite Verdot. Lots of fresh fruit (considering it's 10 years on) cassis, red current. Still can hold this one for some time. — 11 years ago
One of a kind. Not likely to see very much of this jewel in the future. — 10 years ago

Happy Halloween (again). Next up 2012 Nickel & Nickel. I chose opening the State Ranch (Yountville) bc it's probably the lightest and most approachable of the '12s from N&N. It's not one of their big Napa cabs: much more subtle. Some nice chocolate and blueberry notes — 11 years ago
