Note di degustazione
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is fabulous. It's vivid and super-classic to the core, offering up an exotic mélange of dark fruit, espresso, dried herbs, iron, forest floor and incense. The 2021 is a quintessential mountain wine from Mt. Veeder, but there's just enough polish to wrap it all together while avoiding any sense of rusticity. (AG)

Scents of mint, cassis and mocha appear on the nose of the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon. It's medium-bodied, silky and fine across the mid-palate, then a bit dry and astringent on the lingering finish. While approachable now, at eight-plus years of age, it seems to still have a decade (or more) of upside still ahead of it.
Some ripe blue fruit with mushroom character. Hint of conifer, too. Medium to full body. Pretty, firm and creamy tannins. Needs two or three years to come completely together, but already beautiful.
Developing nose, with juicy cassis, kirsch and blue fruit. The palate is defined with cocoa nib, firm tannins and graphite notes. A rich and dark style, some sweet stewed fruit and alcohol just lingers a little on the finish. A good wine with a hefty price tag. Still has time to develop, I suspect it is shut down for business at the moment. (AC)
