@Norman Gennaro Maybe it was just me. It might've needed a lot of air.

Was just saying the same to Gunja @David L. This just did not show well on Friday. I just haven’t had good luck with these wines from Carter but I also have never given one of them the Hendrik 72 hr decant!

Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon

An almost perfect representation of Howell Mountain Cab. Props to the von Strasser clan for delivering this beauty in 2011. Tannic, berries, a bit of smoke and slight acidity. — 7 years ago

Rudy Sauvignon Blanc 2013

Pale yellow color. Strong nose of grapefruit & grass. Medium bodied on the palate, pleasantly acidic but well balanced, lots of citrus flavors. Long finish. — 9 years ago

Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2001

Very consistent with bottles I've had a few months ago. This stuff is built like a tank- another 10+ years left. Nose of decaying earth and chocolate. Red fruits still very present with a spicy tobacco leaf finish that pulls your cheeks in. — 7 years ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Wonderful wine. Comparable to Von Strasser Cab. Give it time to open up and get rid of the sharp, peppery edges & it will be smooth & round, with a dry finish. — 8 years ago

Grüner Veltliner 2013

Loved this! A Grüner from Napa Valley! Hints of green apples on the nose and tangerines & lemons on the palette. I also got a little pineapple. Semi dry finish. Need to find more!!!! — 9 years ago
