Just hitting its stride. Rich nose, lush black cherries on the palate, silky tannins. Still has a long time left.

2006 Cab was medium-purple, soft in the mouth with muted fruit. Didn’t feel a lot of love in the glass. Definitely needs more effort.

A little tired, but good example of mature napa cabernet. It's made in a Bordeaux style, but a little VA going on in the wine. Baked strawberries and rhubarb all day.
Had it as a side by side with the 2014 current release, which I didnt rate..it was incredibly hot (alcohol), and loads of green bell pepper. Pretty tight, and I'm sure it'll develope, but the price is a little tough..
None the less, great stop, beautiful property and historic for that matter, and a very knowledgable staff.

I loved the fruit, ten years on! I wish I had a case as opposed to having just consumed my only bottle
