H Block Hudson Vineyards Cabernet Franc Merlot

This is an inarguably great wine. And all the more impressive to me that it is stylistically not my typical leanings. Serious power, depth, balance - still so young - and I'll be damned if this wine isn't mindblowing in 10 years. Bravo @Fritz Hatton — 10 years ago

I really enjoy when a wine that "isn't my style" impresses me in this way. It encourages me to keep trying everything(I don't need that much encouraging though) and to have an open mind.

Barnaby and I got this wine as a gift on our 10 year anniversary. We found the perfect night to drink it- after a very long day of harvest work with pizza. It was such a treat. — 11 years ago

Liparita

V Block Yountville Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

When compared side by side with Liparita's less expensive Rutherford Cab release, V Block can be likened to a parent's favorite offspring. Although both wines may share similar genetic material and upbringing, V Block has gained more dimension and self confidence through increased care and attention from infancy. #ridiculous :p — 11 years ago
