This beautifully packaged product is coming along beautifully like most of the 94s' I've been drinking. Nose has developed and seems like the finish has lengthened. It was after this outstnading vintage that the Raymonds' decided they belonged in the Napa elite pricing group. This bottle at 29.95 box price rates a solid 92/95 on todays market. WW

WW, is it 100% C.S. or a blend? If a blend, is it resembling a bordeaux blend?

WOW. It looks like they don't want you to know the contents. It's packaged as Napa Cab so it has to have 75% cab. However, the wine has a definate Merlot, and petite verdot nose and flavor profile.I'll try to find out the exact and re-post. WW

I believe the Generations is 100% Cab.

94s are sure pretty for drinking now or later, eh?

Amen Herr Buckenmeister. Between 94 and 97 it'll be great in another 5 to compare the vintages. Right now it's not fair as the extra 3 yars has made the 94s much more polished. WW
