2002 Heitz Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon Martha’s Vineyard
In a blind tasting this single vineyard, single variety from Napa could easily have been mistaken for a Bordeaux. Notes of earth, tobacco and oak combined with dark black fruits. Great structure to this wine with a lovely long finish. Big and smooth and despite high expectations did not disappoint.
Excellent

2000 Dunn Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon
A wonderfully complex Cab. Funky herbal nose upon opening which was replaced by aromas of blackcurrant, plum, eucalyptus and dusty earth notes once exposed to air in the decanter. Big and smooth with a nice long finish, this wine is showing terrific structure that at 17 years still has plenty of time.

Châteauneuf-du-Pape is the historic and beautiful wine region of France’s Southern Rhone Valley. It is rich in history and the wines that it produces can be among the very best in France and the world. Typically, it is a region known to produce wines that are bold and full-bodied, but they also make wines of great finesse. Last year, we were lucky enough to tour and taste at Chateau de la Font du Loup, one of the top producers of the more elegant style CDP wines.
