HL Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

9.3

1 hour decant (some slightly chunky sediment). A beguiling inky ruby red color with some browning. On the nose: red plum, floral, wet forest floor, some blueberry, and a little creme brulee. Taste: red fruit with a touch of blue fruit mixed in, earthy, cedar, and a red licorice mid palate. A soft approachable wine with fine, sweet tannins coating the mouth ending in a cherry espresso medium finish.

Michael Trujillo winemaker with a lower alcohol restrained cabernet for Napa(note: vineyard used for initial Colgin wine launch). 2016 LAST VINTAGE...vineyard now leased to Thomas Rivers Brown going forward...get ready for a TRB HL vineyard wine....more oak, more ripe.....big scores. — 5 years ago

Damn michal Trujillo you are killing it! Dark dark dark. Lots of liquor on the nose with cassis, blackberry, incense and pencil shavings. A big wine but so soft and so plush it hurts. Not for every day but with a New York steak tonight it’s on fire — 5 years ago
