Nose is faint, fully resolving into the body. Body is soft and supple but wonderful experience on the palate with medium finish. Great wine. Tannins are still there, but holding the body with gossamer gloves. β 8 months ago
Fragrance of black cherry and spice. Carries over to the palate. Smooth at 8 years old though not overly complex. What you would expect of a fine Napa Cab in this timeframe. September 2025 β 9 months ago

Could be a 9.2 but I had it at a steakhouse and the Cali Cab - Filet combo makes allβs those wines taste better. Even without the 2+2=5 taste combo was still smooth, darkly fruited, and great. β 10 months ago
