A wonderful soft delivery of blackberry and cherry. Tannins are still present, but background noise to the fruit that is pushing forward to say hello. Delicious.

Still a baby - but drinking well. Inky dark with black and blue fruits, butter with sage and spice aromas

A gem from our cellar for my 60th, a great example of well made Oakville Cab aged well and really at a high point in its age, the texture was gorgeous, the pallet was complex, a beautiful wine. It tasted fantastic with our roast rack of veal. Thanks to my beautiful wife Lesley for this one.

Dark cherry, rose, olive, leather, pepper. Soft acid and tannins. Past it’s prime but still a really fun wine with the Mrs.!!!

Wine #2 from the steak night and 2006 Cali vs Washington comparison. Far niente smelled very fruity upon opening and then as it decanted, it closed a bit but it was tight. Solid balance and good depth. Overall pretty good. About 50/50 on the winner vs the Leonetti.

Popped and incredible nose of wild blue fruits. Developed nicely with some air time.
