After an hr of air things just came together big fruit, present tannins and a great finish. Everything appeared in harmony and yet there seemed it had more to give. Hold for a few if you can. — 8 days ago
Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose with red and black fruits, light wood, chocolates, light earth, herbs and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with black currants, blueberries, plums, licorice, light cedar, earth, milk chocolates, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.
Nice length on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty Cabernet Sauvignon from Alexander Valley. Rich and fruit forward. Elegant and nicely balanced, complex and entertaining.
Very true to the Terroir, and shows very much like an Alexander Valley Cabernet.
Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.
Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime. Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
A blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot. Aged in (50% new) French oak barrels for 18 months.
14.3% alcohol by volume.

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min. The 2024 “White Hill” pours a pale straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with bright notes of star fruit, passion fruit, stone fruits, lemons, a touch of freshly struck matchstick, some white flowers and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and slightly saline. I love the character of these wines. Really tasty stuff. Drink now through 2034+. — 5 months ago
#AgedWineTuesday
Inky in color with a wide reddish rim.
Earthy nose with black fruits, cedar and lots of earth and vegetable notes.
Full bodied and soft with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cherries, cedar, toast, light vanilla, tobacco leaf, herbs, mediterranean spices, dark chocolates, bell pepper, green tea, diet coke and peppercorn.
Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This 15 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from the challenging 2011 vintage, is drinking beautifully. Rich and fruit forward. Nicely balanced and very complex. Elegant and interesting.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes of airtime. I did not decant it and let it open up in the bottle.
As it opens up, more bell pepper notes show up. Feels like a Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon. Still drinking at its peak, but will not last long so drink up.
A great sipping wine that does not need food at all.

We had the 2020 vintage of Little Hill on 11/3-4/26. Tastes of black cherry, raspberry and spice. Wonderful mouth feel. Medium bodied, well balanced, New World. Aged and ready to drink, no tannin. Perhaps the best single vineyard I have had. — 12 days ago

From magnum. Partially poured into a decanter and enjoyed over the course of a couple days. Best on Day 2. The 2015 Pritchard Hill pours a deep ruby/purple with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing and richly fruited with powerful, heady notes of cassis, blackberries, plum, purple flowers, tobacco, cocoa, some star anise and fine warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and the texture is luxurious. Classic Pritchard Hill character and surely a candidate for top vineyard status if the US were to ever adopt a classification status. There’s a long future here, especially in this larger format. Drink now with patience through 2055. — 3 months ago

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Beautiful nose of black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, spices, licorice, chocolates, light vanilla, coffee, earth and herbs.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cherries, light cedar, earth, coffee, herbs, light vanilla, toast, tobacco leaf and chocolates.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Alexander Valley. Rich and fruit forward, elegant and nicely balanced.
Still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself. Needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

The nose reminds me of a Napa Cabernet. Complex and entertaining.
A great sipping wine that will pair nicely with food too.
