Ad Vivum Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2009

Very opaque, with a deep ruby color and purple tinge. Layered aromas include generous cassis, super-ripe raspberry and black licorice, with notes of graphite and anise. These aromas are echoed on the wine’s voluptuous palate. The wine coats the mouth with ripe, silky tannins, and hints of clove and pain grillé from well-integrated French oak... Read Full Review →

Arietta Merlot Napa 2011

Complex aromas of plum, black stone fruits, and black tea set the stage for this stunner. On the palate the wine is expansive and very serious, well-balanced, giving generous amounts of red berries, cocoa powder, cassis, and spice, and a long, silky finish. Outstanding now, but will continue to evolve for another 10 years. Read Full Review →

Bevan Propietary Red Oakville EE 2010

With such prestigious neighbors as Rudd and Gargiulo, it is no wonder that this fruit is destined for greatness. With notes of cut flowers, black cherries and cassis exploding from the glass, sumptuous fruit and complex notes of espresso, clove, and graphite coat the palate. This is delicious now, but will easily cellar well over... Read Full Review →

Aromas of blackberry, currant, anise and vanilla immediately jump from the glass. Opens up to aromas of plum, cedar and soy develop.

Chateau Boswell Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To-Kalon 2005

Starting with aromas of cassis, licorice, leather and mocha. Dense, creamy-sweet and juicy, with excellent concentration to its luscious flavors of dark berries and semi-sweet chocolate. This grand creation features ultra luscious fruit flavors deftly melded together with plush tannins that bode well for long term cellaring (if you can wait). Enjoy tonight, after decanting...
