Just now coming into its' own. This neat Bottling from Tom Burgess' mountain vineyards on upper Silverado trail shows how to craft long-lived delicious wines with character, flavor, and value all packed in one keen package. Still deep ruby the nose provides lots of black cherry, vanilla, all-spice, and a hint of chocolate. As usual Toms' cab would have to be the P/Q leader of the 91 Napa cabs. 78% cab, 12 Merlot, and 10 cab franc this is, as usual a super bottle. Still a few unresolved tannins in the rear that needs another 2-3. A solid 90/93. 20 by the box on release.WW
