RW Red Winery Vineyard Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Delicious pairing with filet mignon with blueberry balsamic sauce and garlic mashed potatoes. Bold flavors, nice balanced tannins. Mild acidity with a pleasant finish. And the color! So rich and gem-like. — 3 years ago

2008 Roda I Tempranillo. Lunch at RW. Drank alongside the '89 Solaia. This wine was excellent. Decanted before serving- abt 30 min before pouring. It's def a big wine, but not too tannic or acidic. Fruity, chewy and threat w rich foods- chicken liver toast, wings, red sauce pizza. Excellent. — 7 years ago

Harlan Estate

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1999

B
9.0

Magnum 1999 Harlan Estate. Welcome dinner for D fam at RW. Drank this after the '96 Araujo Eisele out of magnum. Unfortunately, this bottle was not stored properly and just didn't drink great. Unanimous that Araujo hit it out of the park and that this wine was not what it should have been. It was hot, lacked dimension, and the finish was abrupt and harsh. It should have been great, as we have been enjoying other '99s at this time, but not this bottle. — 8 years ago
