Enjoyed. Typical for this vineyard. — a month ago
2021 vintage. 14.1% ABV and 619 cases made. Medium-medium/heavy body. Chilled down and traced as it warmed up. Immediate spearmint nose off the starboard bow along with currant and Fudgsicle. These all dropped in and acted out in the flavor profile with ripe plum and some dark chocolate notes. Pretty close to a PNP but decant or give an hour after opening if possible. The chill down was huge and found this effort with ample but integrated (already!!) tannins. About as close to a 9.4 as it could get. In 6 months? Very likely. Super delicious and affordable for great Napa cab. 05.02.25. — 3 months ago

Light ruby/garnet color. Red fruit aromas along with touches of baking spices, caramel and red flowers. Flavors of ripe/cooked red cherries and strawberries, caramel and those sweet baking spices. Well integrated oak notes on the long finish. Creamy and smooth texture and well balanced acidity. Thanks for sharing, John S. — 4 days ago
