Decant this massive Californian Cabernet for at least 2 hours. Better yet, give it more cellar time. Wild yeast was used for fermentation. This wine offers aromas of black fruit and smoke. It was aged for 22 months in French oak barrels.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
