Celebrating that we just got our power back on after Irma so had to open one of my favorite Bordeaux for current drinking. Stunning aromatics of black fruits & cassis with a perfume of tarry, camphor, licorice spice, soy, black olive & violet. On the palate you get this core of sweet black fruits that is rich & full bodied. I have consumed more than 6 cases of this wine in the last 5 years and most every btl has been an awesome experience. — 8 years ago

06' Kelham Vineyards Sons Red Blend. Keeping my eyes on this winery. I had a couple of these Kelham last week at the "Taste of Oakville". Current release ? They set this wine down just shy of 10 years before releasing it! Looking forward to trying the 2007 this fall 😉. — 10 years ago

Fantastic! High tannins and with a nose full of full bodied dark fruit take a sip and you will taste the black current, dark cherries, and raspberries, and with the scent on the nose the taste will be amplified. Amazing bottle. Great with company and food. — 10 years ago

Awesome 👏 Got this last year and I did not like. Decided to open a second bottle and I am so glad I did. Fine , sinewy tannins, subtle oak smells, all around vibrant and delicious. I am getting the current vintage and putting it away
for 15-20 years.. — 7 years ago

The more I drink 2012 Napa the more I realize that I should stock this vintage , quite robust yet still elegant. This CS has a deep dark color, lovely enchanting nose of black current, coffee, after eight and a light touch if spice, full body with firm tannins, that needed a bit of decanting to open up, a long delicious dry finish. I would wait a couple of years before approaching. My score 89, drink 2017-2027 — 10 years ago

Terry Leighton is the winemaker and is quite an interesting character. Terry marches to his own drum when it comes to making and releasing his wines.His 95 Chardonnay is his current release. How many wine producers are willing to hold their wines and forgo revenue until they believe they are truly ready to enjoy?Almost none! Terry does not filter his Chardonnay. The 95 is; macerated apples, pear, quince, a touch of ripe pineapple and has just a hint of a raisinated quality. Rich lush mouthfeel, nice balance and near perfect acidity. — 10 years ago

It always amazes me how approachable the current vintage of Caymus Cab is year after year. One of a few Cabs that you can drink now as well as put some age on it. Dark Ruby with rich ripe berry aromas. Flavors of cherry and raspberry with cinnamon and cacao notes. Very soft tannins on lingering finish ending with some earthy spice tones. A Fav! — 8 years ago

2003, Lovely wine, new world in style, rich intense and lavish. Deep garnet color, tempting nose of licorice, black cherries, leather, wet soil, chocolate, black rip plums, full body with well integrated rich round tannins, lovely acidity that is quit surprising for the extra warm vintage, long delicious dry yet ripe finish. A truly delightful wine, that is underrated in my humble opinion. My score 90+, drink to 2018, perhaps even longer. — 10 years ago
