Just amazing! One word for it... finesse I am very amazed on the balance, complexity and structure of this wine. On the nose is fine oak, leather, hints of pepper, curiously thinking of strong tannin wine. On the palate, some great lush plum blackberry jam notes followed by rich balanced oak. Layers of chocolate tobacco cassis with a tad of cream. Fun and inviting to swirl and explore the layers followed with a sophisticated oak dark fruit aftertaste finish. For $94 this is a winner.

Absolutely glorious! Crisp, rich sweet nose, very fruity, you can smell those grapes perfectly. The first taste is soft and sweet on the tip of the tongue, and then it finishes gently. Light on the tannins, it doesn't coat the mouth to much but it has such a pleasant flavor. Had mine with a rack of lamb (sesame crust with with cheese at Modavie in Montreal) and it went great. Held up shockingly well to such a strong flavor combo.

Palette is cedar, oak, cherry, blackberry, vanilla, nutmeg, Clove, and black pepper. Strong flavors. Long finish. Velvet structure with balanced yet firm integrated tannins. Perhaps the perfect California cabernet.

Mehr geht nicht! Eine Geschmacks Explosion par excellence! Fruchtig, fein und tief. Blind Degustiert und ich wusste das es ein Kalifornier ist! Die Farbe ist tief beinahe schwarz. Der Geschmack ist beerig mit viel Vanille und Rumtopf! Die Länge ist unbeschreiblich dicht und fruchtig. Alle Geschmacks Nuance sind perfekt abgestimmt. Tannine und Säure in perfektem Einklang! Also ehrlich, da gibt es nichts auszusetzen sogar der Preis geht fast noch in Ordnung für dieses Wein Erlebnis! Einfach traumh

In der nase schöne vanille-und dezente leder- sowie holzröstnote intensiv und nachhaltig. Am gaumen filigrane schwarze früchte, reife cassis mit milden balsamico- und schokoaromen und dennoch konzentriert, wunderbar vielschichtig vinifiziert...

Black fruit, licorice, chocolate, natsmeg, a little cedar The acid and tannins are solid, but the mouthfeel is elegant, the balance of fruit and spices is good, outstanding 黒系果実、リコリス、チョコレート、ナツメグ、すこし杉 酸とタンニンはしっかりあるがエレガントな口当たり、果実とスパイス感のバランスが良く、さすがに非常に美味しい at 白金台試飲会

Dry, full bodied, well balanced. I drank a 15 yo bottle, and the age was just about perfect. Not overpowering, very flavorful. Still had some tannic dryness but no bitterness.

VivinoWinenonymous2022-06-04

This is flat-out marvelous. Text book Caberner Sauvignon from Napa. Fruity, oaky and complex. Blackberries, currant and chocolate. Full body and incredibly smooth. Hold or Drink.

2019. Drank June 2023. Magnificent nose right out of the bottle. Fruit forward and complex. Opened up nicely with a decant but tannins could use a bit of time of the side. Great bottle that I’d lay down for a couple years.

• Aroma & Flavor: Bursting with black cherry and bramble spice, complemented by notes of cocoa and cardamom . • Palate & Finish: Plush and fleshy, featuring soft, supple tannins—playful and dynamic .

Big lush Napa fruit with outstanding mouthfeel to go along with lasting tannins. A bit young without a decant, has room to go.

2011 Lewis Cabernet Sauvignon. A big and smoky wine. Front hints of tobacco with late essences of leather and herb.
