Good. Decanting would probably make it lean towards very very good. Oaky, but not enough to make it an O Bomb. Sweet leather nose, solid tannic elements keep it grounded. Pull out the seared tbone and stewed tomato garlic swiss chard.

Great example of a Napa mountain cab. Earlier vintages (99, 01) were even better. This wine was my first introduction so it and this winery will always be a personal favorite (helps too that I have family ties to the winery)

    If anyone goes to Napa, I recommend this Winery. Its hard to pick one wine to recommend tops. This wine is a classic, try the Select Chard and Allomi Cab for everyday drinking.

    Absolutely delicious Mt. Veeder cab. Nose is absolutely phenomenal, currant, NesQuik, blackberry, and a slight bell pepper started to come out about an hour after opening. Palate is smooth. Blackcurrant, blackberry on the palate. Absolutely delightful paired with a lightly seasoned steak.

    Aromas open up to blackberry and cassis with a hint of cedar in the background. The wine has a rich entry, which leads to a full mid-palate and a long, soft finish. The flavors mimic that of the aroma with dark fruit and a hint of chocolate ...

    Aromas of toffee and wild mountain blackberries fill the glass, while the rich mid-palate of boysenberry coulis parlays into a long, silky finish.

    Small amounts of Malbec and Merlot bring some additional complexity to this Cabernet, but itrsquo;s still a pretty straightforward wine. Soft and dry, it has generous flavors of blackberry and new oak. Drink now.

    Dunkles Kirschrot mit Purpurreflexen. Im Aroma Kirschen, Brombeeren und Cassis mit Nuancen von Kaffee und Vanille. Ein grosser Wein mit gut gebautem Körper, fleischig und konzentriertEiner der besten Weine Kaliforniens

    Sturdy, intense, extracted and complex, with dense earthy currant, sage, cedar and mint flavors. Mount Veeder reds can be rugged, and even with an added year in bottle this is open-throttle. Very nicely done in a classic Mount Veeder style. Begs for more time. Best from 2014 through 2028.

    Tintiges Purpur mit schwarzen Reflexen. Backpflaumen und Brombeerengelee in der konzentrierten Nase, Lebkuchen und Amarenakirschen dahinter, tiefgründig und ansprechend zugleich. Fülliger Auftakt mit marmeladigem Extrakt und runden Tanninen, viel Wärme ausstrahlend, faszinierende Balance zwischen lakritzeartiger Mineralik und saftiger Fruchtsüsse, Brombeeren in allen Nuancen, auch Heidelbeeren und schwarze Schokolade, herrliche Gaumenfülle bis ins honigartige Finale.
