  • 2005 Judd’s Hill Cabernet Sauvignon - USA, California, Napa Valley (1/28/2010)
    Fleshy raspberry with a full, rich mouthfeel. Currant, tea leaf, and a touch of green herb that I love in many 2005 Napa Cabs. Tannins are fine and not off-putting but a few more years in the cellar will pay off for this wine. Not a 91 just yet, but I think it will be in time. A friend brought this to a restaurant but I see that it retails for somewhere just above $40. That’s a heck-of-a-deal for an excellent Napa Cab. (91 pts.)

Nice to see this note. I remember when Judd’s Hill was the latest, greatest thing to hit the market. Expensive (for the time) and relatively hard to find.
