Much much more elegant than so many Napa Cabs. Mint, tobacco, cassis, and loads of acidity to balance.

Plum, cassis, mint, anise and a touch of tobacco. Classic Napa cab with acidity that won’t quit and alcohol that doesn’t overpower.

A classic Napa Cabernet that show true varietal character with low alcohol and not a lot of new oak.

Total throwback to old Napa. All tannin and acid, dust and fruit. The beginning of a legendary wine.

The 13s are something. While this has always been pretty approachable the structure is in some ways even more pronounced with age. Still a very well balanced cab.

Probably would have been better with a decant but opened this to replace a corked wine and so it goes. 13.5% Napa cab. Always appreciate the matthiasson style with wines like this. Velvety with deep red and purple fruit. Great acid and a nice finish. Quite a lot of sediment.

Great balance, old world inspired (or Steve would say, classic Napa). One of the more accessible ‘13 cabs I’ve had.

r. @ Bistro jeanty in yountville. Still very young. Like a young Bordeaux. Excellent acidity, bright blue and black fruits, with still pretty crisp but not at all astringent tannins. Pop and pour. Definitely a decant is in order. Opened up nicely over the course of the meal. Really quite delicious.
