Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is an inaugural release, made by Napa veteran Cary Gott, grown on the western hillsides above Highway 29. It is 100% Cabernet, classic in its acid and tannin structure, with very ripe cherry compote and cassis flavors. However, it’s too sweet for complete balance and enjoyment.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The ’03 thankfully is drier and more balanced than the inaugural ’02, which shows a learning curve. It’s made in the classic Napa mode, with rich, thick tannins supporting blackberry, olive tapenade and sweet oak flavors. Gracious now, the wine should age well for a decade.
