  Very interesting wine. Very complex on the nose, black fruit, Cassis, some floral notes. All structure on the palate, big, lots of acid and tannin. Medium-long finish.

  (Corison) On termine en beauté avec le mythique Kronos, qui justifie entièrement sa réputation : magnifique vin, qui montre une point d'évolution, plus de densité que les précédents, du menthol au nez. En bouche, c'est superbe, à la manière d'un grand Médoc, avec une très belle veine acide qui conduit le vin, grosse persistance, et très beau fruit. Splendide !

  New Year's (Chicago, IL): Served double blind. Clearly of a new-world persuasion, but done in the way wine ought to be done. The fruit is generous and ripe, and certainly speaks true to Napa (which is what I guessed), and the pyrazines make this an easy cabernet (blend) guess. On the reveal, this is exactly as I would have guessed; the weaker vintage gives this a lift and lightness that make it actually quite pleasant to drink. In fact, given the tannins, I'd love to see this with more age on it.

  There was a green note on the nose and palate that burned off after an hour in a decanter. Then a beautiful nose of blue fruits and violets. Very smooth and fresh on the palate with a lean bent for a Napa Cab but true to the vintage. Great flavors of cassis, dark berries and minerals with hints of green stalk and eucalyptus. Finishes very fresh and juicy with superb complexity in the form of great mineral crunch and a fabulous dark spice note. If you’re accustomed to drinking the typical highly ripe and plush Napa Cab, this takes a little getting used to but worth it in my opinion to really see Napa Cabernet in its purest form. Brilliant wine drinking so well right now.
