Medium gold color. Wine is still young. Super silky texture. Nose of camomile, butter, and minerals. High quality, refined wine. Give this a few years and it will give any top White Burg a run for its money! — 3 days ago

1hr+ decant. Dark red color with purple hues. Classic bell pepper, licorice, coffee, and a bit of oak on the nose. Medium plus depth with high alcohol. Could mistake for a Brunello. Some perfume and orange peel on the palate. Big tannins. A little too harsh on the palate for me. — a month ago

These guys used to make a “Heritage” blend with old Napa Zin vines and a bunch of other varietals that was so good. I was very sad when the stopped making it (probably grubbed up the vines and replanted with Cab $$).

The Heritage was great! Had my last bottle back in 2023.
