This was the WOFTN. Even better than the 03 Calon-Segur & 21 Lithology, but the Lithology had been open a week in the cooler. Still good just not its true self.

The winemakers for the 2016 Kelly Fleming Cabernet Sauvignon were Rebecca George and Françoise Peschon. Rebecca George was the day-to-day winemaker, and Françoise Peschon, consulting Winemaker.

Excellent wine paired with a Salmon dinner. Beautiful balance of fruit and acid. Acid level is as able ton cut through the fat content of salmon. — 6 years ago

An excellent start to our weekend. Very nice floral notes give way to an elegant, fruit forward wine that screams drink me. It worked very well today in Houston with a temp in the 70’s, but it would really rock on a hot summer day. Beautiful fruit followed by a great finish. — 9 years ago

Kelly really liked it. "A lot going on in that glass!" Craig thought it was fine, but more earthy/minerally than he typically likes. — 9 years ago

Tasted side by side with 2014 I think this (90+ pts) showed a tiny bit of pyrazines that made me prefer the older vintage.

After tasting a GREAT barrel-sample of their 2018 I think this is a winery to watch. — 7 years ago

I’ve always loved the 2003 Napa Cabernets despite vintage charts and reviews.

This wine was procured at auction dirt cheap and it’s one of the early Kelly Fleming wines - maybe 2nd vintage.

Needed airtime and oxygen. Still a lot of power and dark flavors. Fruit remains and it’s quite a solid wine. Winner in my book — 2 years ago

As pinot noir goes this is a fairly full-bodied wine with both red and black fruit character and very appealing herbal and forest floor qualities. Tasted alongside the 2015 Hyde Vineyard bottling this one has a bit more acidity and structure though both are equally appealing. — 8 years ago
