first time ever to try this producer.I was very impressed.Brite red cherries with hint of cotton candy.was quite balanced for an 02. 3 1/2 laper for the finish.100% cab grapes.14.6% alcohol.Will improve with another 3-5 and hold for another 3.I bought 6 about 18 months ago at the recommendation of WW. really glad I did because I have 5 left to enjoy.score 91/91

A first class producer that I've enjoyed over the years. Will open a bottle in the near future. WW

I agree. Tony's pride has always been his Pinots but I've always liked his cabs. Even prefered them. At present, I don't have the Etude Napa, but do have a couple of the Etude Rutherford.... I believe '04.
I still vividly remember his '94 Cab Napa. As of a couple years ago, it was still singing.

Count me in there Brapster. I think I drank the last of the 94s sometime last year. Memorable juice. WW
