Here’s a nice review from Jean over at AvalonWine.com…
We just tasted the 07 Private Stash yesterday with owners/winemakers Rolin Soles (Argyle) and Corby Stonebraker. According to Rolin “in this type of vintage (2007) anyone can get red fruit and minerality. The trick is the creamy midpalate – it makes the wine round and gives an impression of fullness in the mouth.” And the wine shows that he accomplished his goal.
The 07 Private Stash’s scent of dried roses and red cherry is echoed by red raspberry, red cherry, and sweet cherry candy fruit flavors. It is an elegant wine that gains weight and richness as a fresh, creamy quality opens upon tasting. Crisp, balanced minerality, and seamless tannins will allow the wine to cellar well for 3-4 years. – Jean
