Or is my blog the cure for your insomnia? :)<br /><br />Sean Minor just told me (via facebook) to drink up my 08s and be on the lookout for the 09. I'm guessing that's a hint.....Bill Rosichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00646174499508390782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5966466419171466838.post-47170578213604384632012-03-29T17:08:18.013-05:002012-03-29T17:08:18.013-05:00Bill, thanks for straightening me out, 4:30 am and...Bill, thanks for straightening me out, 4:30 am and I'm engaging things my brain is unprepared for.<br />Sounds good, and if I see any of these I'll pick them up!<br />You certainly do SM right!New Hampshire Winemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07111304557830665931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5966466419171466838.post-79570898657058094272012-03-29T11:41:57.472-05:002012-03-29T11:41:57.472-05:00Dennis, the 07 and 08 sold for about $15 here. Sea...Dennis, the 07 and 08 sold for about $15 here. Sean is changing his line-up a bit and starting with 09 he's going to release a Sean Minor Napa Cab for about $20 and a 4 Bears Paso Cab for about $15.<br /><br />Did I say it has seen its best days? I think I said it's in "no danger of going downhill any time soon" and to "drink over the next 5-7 years."<br /><br />I mean this isn't "serious" compared to $100 single vineyard "cult Cabs," but I think it really overdelivers in that price range.<br /><br />I had the '08 last April and really enjoyed it. Found a lot of the same black olive and black fruit notes as I detected in last night's 07. At the time I thought the 08 was perhaps more of a near-term (2-3 year window) drinker. Pretty sure there's at least one other point of reference on the 07 Cab somewhere in the blog archives. I haven't tried the 09 yet.ugawinohttp://www.ugawino.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5966466419171466838.post-31158504030152194172012-03-29T04:48:35.259-05:002012-03-29T04:48:35.259-05:00Bill, this sounds sooo good!

Also, you say it might have seen its best days: isn't that a little early for a "really serious Napa Valley Cabernet"?<br />Now get out the crystal-ball: what of the 2008/09s?<br />Thanks,<br />DennisNew Hampshire Winemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07111304557830665931noreply@blogger.com
