Tremendous wine, still tannins on the younger to suggest it’s got more time to run. Fantastically long finish, Black fruits abound, one if he more memorable wines I have had in recent memory

Still drinking great, very enjoyable wine w still-long finish and tannins show it still has longer to run

3 hour decant, wasn't overly impressed, same can be said for '05 JB (non 44mo aged), but let remaining half bottle decant total of 8 hours, and what a difference! Medium body, high acid, loooong finish. Dark fruits, cherry, menthol. Medium taninins. Feels this wine has a number of years left to sit on the shelf. See you next in 2025 for your 20th bday. Sadly finished '05 JB regular in the early hours, tough to say much on the pairing, with a few hour decant we didn't love either. Give both more time in bottle and if drinking soon, long decant

Out of the bottle (decanted 20 minutes) this wine is silky smooth, full body, medium tannins, short finish. Drank an hour later paired with spicy red sauce, pasta, and truffle chicken sausage - the truffle brings out the finish and elevates this from a good wine to a great wine (for the price)...just ordered 3 more bottles. My girlfriend loved this wine, so if you're looking for a Napa Cab that the ladies will not feel overpowered by, this may be your ticket

Complex but very easy drinking. Better w 30-60min in the glass

Lot of fertile dark earth. Slow deep legs dripping down the glass. This is definitely a case of hot older women defeating the young sluts. This wine is still tight and could use a few more years in the bottle. Heartburn is unbearable as I write, but unclear if that's the wine. Dark blackberry, currant, shoe leather, cigar box, charcoal, oooooh the heartburn. Esophagus is stripped, can't be good. Drank alone and wasn't impressed, paired w pepperoni pizza and Catchphrase and was blown away. Very heavy bottle that will impress dinner guests guaranteed.

Great full bodied flavor, smooth, long finish. Classic napa cab, drank by itself and was a great balance of full dark fruit flavor but not an overpowering in your face style you can sometimes get out on the Valley

Not what I was hoping for given the 94+ community ranking. Well balanced wine and soft structure, but overwhelming nose and "strange" flavors made this wine one of the poorer performers of the night. I'm a big fan of Australian Shiraz but this one was not for me

Great sparkling wine which I prefer to many champagnes. Full flavor and light body, and at $30 it's a great bottle

Very floral nose, pepper and plum. Super flat, way past it's prime, should be taken off the shelves even at $15

Very disappointed with this wine. Got a case of it too, hopefully it was just a bad bottle, or will get better with time, but was a very unimaginative flavor profile, short finish...not what you'd expect from Foley

A light bodied non-event Napa Cab. Very bitter finish that lingers for a long time - not enjoyable. Certainly not worth $60, I paid $8 from Station Plaza Wines in the Bronx, so for $8 hard to complain, but even at that price point I won't be ordering it again - life is too short to drink something like this

This jammy fruit bomb never disappoints. Full, full body and blackberry fruity finish; delight to drink and at 16% you will be the hit of the night
