2007 Cakebread Cellars Chardonnay Napa Valley

Sunday, August 29, 2010 - For me, this is benchmark California Chardonnay. Aromatically, it shows more caramel and butter than it reveals on the palate. And that's a good thing. By that I mean it smells like it's perhaps too oaky/buttery/sweet and yes delicious but then shows restraint on the palate allowing the bottle to be utterly enjoyable. Drew rave reviews from guests once again.

2007 Robert Craig Cabernet Sauvignon Affinity

Thursday, August 26, 2010 - Dark ruby red visually. Blackberries backed up by some nice floral components. Well balanced tannins provide backbone without getting at all in the way of enjoyment (even when consumed without food). Long finish. A strong showing from beginning to end. Would expect it to develop more secondary characteristics over time, but it's showing well now as a balanced fruit-forward Napa red.
