Such a phenomenal Napa Cab. Cathy Corison really is "the best" when it comes to feminine Napa Cabs from the Valley floor. Her 2000 vintage is showing beautifully right now. No one better than Joyce & Bob to taste you through the line-up at the winery!

Well balanced, fruit forward, round and smooth. Surpsingly light but no lightweight, holds it's own. Good start and better finish. In three words and in this order: fruit, silk, toffee. Solid buy for the price ( $16).

I enjoyed this cabernet at dinner at the new Heirloom Café in San Francisco, which has a killer corkage policy: bottles 2002 and older $10, otherwise $25. I got peppery notes on the nose. This wine is beautifully balanced and softened with a little age. I tasted blackberry, currant, bell pepper and slight leather notes. Smooth and light on the palate yet full or flavor. This paired perfectly with my steak.

Long story on the pricing...my buddy got it a few years
ago through an inside connection from a wholesaler, so
not exactly though the regular channels. Looks like you
can get the 2006 for $40 at K&L online.

Outstanding wine!!! 60% Cabernet Franc and 30% Tempranillo. The grapes for this wine are estate grown. Deep red color with bright berry characteristics. Full bodied and well balanced with slight berry flavors up front and a strong earthy finish that stays with you. This wine is oaked but not over done. I would highly recommend this wine for pairing or sipping on its own.

Nearly 10 years old, this wine is still full and smooth. It is also showing enough structure that leads me to believe it could have another decade in it. Ripe flavors of plum and blackberries mix with hints of cassis, licorice and cocoa powder.

Cicchitti Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon - 2005I think Cabs from Argentina are one of the best kept secrets in the great world of wine. They have the quintessentially Argentine smoke character, that distinctly earthy flavor- but they are generally more European in style with a subtler fruit-forward character than a Napa Cab. I am a big fan- think they offer great value. (7/10)

Medium garnet color, slight spice, earthiness on nose, mild elusive fruit aromas, medium body, very short finish. But it tasted way too earthy after being open four hours. I'm a big fan of earth. I like it beneath my feet. I just don't like it in my mouth. 7-1/2 winehiker points out of 20.
