T-Vine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Doc Gold Vineyard

Decanted for 90 minutes. High acid with a somewhat thin body. Drinkable, but disappointing. Rather 1 dimensional

I enjoyed this at the winery and felt like it had nice earthy and tar notes. Might have been a little palette fatigue going on, because when I had the bottle it was somewhat different than I remember. Still good, but far more fruit forward. Nice purple fruit and good balance. Fairly plush without a ton of acid. I tend to go for wines in a different style, but I can tell this is well made.

Tasting near its prime, great balanced blackberry fruit some tangy but smooth tannins. I believe this one has at least 2 more years. Quite frankly, I should have bought more of this. It compares well with many of the valley's better $80 cabs

Deep purple/crimson. Licorice, dark fruit and tannins. Reasonably balanced. Better than out bottle 6 months prior. Good, not great. Drink now.

Tanic and acidic. Reasonably balanced. Lacking any real fruit. Probably as good as its going to get. Drink soon.

A little unremarkable for a Napa cab. OK for everyday.

Big, bold fruit in your face Cali cab. Plenty of structure. Decanted for less than an hour and drank over 2. Smooth tannins, good acidity and medium finish.
