This bottle was given to me by a good friend and we drink it together on 8-4-2010. It was also my 60th birthday. — 11 years ago

This beautiful 2005 cab was an anniversary gift from a great friend of mine @Jeff Savigny The vintage is the year we got married. The nose is so complex and yet so subdued, it practically blew my mind. A nose full of roses, tobacco, dark fruit and licorice with a hint of molasses and vanilla. On the palate very dry, with a faint aged acidity, yet very rich and delicious. You can spend just as much time smelling this as drinking it. This was a near perfect wine and a great anniversary present! — 12 years ago

1947. Can't actually believe I have rated this in my lifetime. Although it had a significant amount of leakage and oxidisation, it was still bright, still had bags of fruit, tannins, acidity. What am incredibly generous wine to open to celebrate our new little company. Thx guys xxx — 12 years ago

This 2004 was simply amazing. The group of 6 of us enjoyed the first bottle from the case so much we drank 4 more.... Paired well with a simple salami (pork, donkey, beef, pepper, salt, and garlic) and a local bread. — 11 years ago

Lots of blackberry and fruit up front with a smooth silky finish. Still very young so a little acidic on the finish. Should age well. We bought a case to put down and just had to sample one bottle before leaving the others to their slumber! — 12 years ago

Over the next 6 days of our road trip we will be drinking 6 top napa wines from 2009. This one's nose and perfume explode from the bottle. Fragrant in the mouth. Excellent. — 12 years ago
