Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is a big, rich, expansive wine. Layers of blue and black fruit, spices and flowers flow gracefully from this textured, inviting Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2009 possesses an inner glow and warmth that is immensely appealing. An elegant, finessed finish rounds things out..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Offers beautiful blueberry, raspberry, and cherry notes intermixed with toasty new oak, spring flowers, lovely fruit, and fine length."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
“Aromas of blueberries and minerals, with hints of flowers. Full body, with silky tannins and a fresh, clean finish. Chewy, yet polished.”

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is a beauty, with dark ruby/purple color and a big sweet nose of tobacco leaf intermixed with black currant, black cherry, new saddle leather, and white chocolate. The wine is full-bodied, powerful, with superb purity, texture, and length. It's..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"An elegant, pure and airy nose features cool aromas of white peach, pear, stone and floral elements. There is excellent intensity and punch to the mineral-driven medium weight flavors that possess plenty of mouth coating sap on the bone dry and citrus infused finish. This is terrific."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Another showstopper, the 2010 Meursault Genevrieres is uncommonly rich and voluptuous for Genevrieres. Deep, resonant layers of fruit nearly manage to bury the wine-s considerable minerality. The 2010 is a totally intense, seamless Meursault with no hard edges and exceptional balance. Today it is..
