As warmed up...solid layers of lemon from core to skin. Layers of subtle sugar and briney evolution. — 3 years ago

Fabulous. Think. Full earthy. Well you know. Everything you should get. Very special bottle for us. Wife and I where in Napa , valentines week. BTW. The best week of the year to vacation there. No crowds or traffic. We valentine dinner deep into their wine caves. 5 course tasting and meal. Band. Dancing. We won this bottle just for being the furthest travelled. Drinking an 06. That we received in 09. In New Paltz for a weekend getaway. Nov 17, 2023. — 6 months ago
Enjoying this, though it’s lower tannin than you might find a cab from other CA regions. Blackberry and leather on the nose that moves toward dark chocolate as it opens up. A bit earthy but some dark fruit too. Smooth and velvety, probably not going to age better from here. — 9 months ago

I usually tend toward Pinot Noir, but when I want something just a bit bolder, Gamay hits the spot. I have really been enjoying this 2015 vintage. — 6 years ago
Paired well with a lamb, eggplant purée, fava beans, piquolo pepper. Would also pair with a medium rare magret duck or other game. — 9 years ago

Earth, barnyard, crunchy berries, depth and breadth envelops the palate. Layers upon layers. Plenty left to give. Fantastic offering from the Etzel’s. — 6 months ago
