This was a very nice blend. Shared with some Napa friends and we all commented on the plush taste.

The crowd favourite at the Brisbane tasting of Cabernets. Cabernet Sauvignon 78/Malbec 10/Merlot 10/Petit Verdot 2. Similar in style to the Mount Brave. Black and blue fruits. Oaked up and ripe.

One of my favorite CA cabs. Great acid, well balanced, and lean. Lots of perfumed berry.

2012 vintage. Mount Eden Vineyards wine dinner @Mister A’s Restaurant-San Diego. Decanted and tasted after opening and 4hrs later. Dark and dense nose and flavors at the onset. Medium body but very very close to light-medium. Tasting 4 hrs later, wine had gained a little weight with a grippy consistency and plenty of dark fruit/espresso love. Wine has dropped all the baby fat and entered “the zone.” Just below cresting the top of the bell curve and set up for a decade+ of top-notch pleasure. 4.20.23.

Great wine! It shows itself as a solid 2nd growth Bordeaux from St. Julien! Excellent for the price point! 55 bucks. Cheers and Happy Holidays y’all!

Delicious cab, mushroom and great dark fruit and an empty bottle. Look for more.
