Steve & Paula Black pursued a dream in 2003 and purchased a 110-acre vineyard located in the Red Hills of Dundee creating The Four Graces, named after their four daughters. Medium Ruby with surprisingly complex aromas of red fruits, herb and spice. On the palate cherry and raspberry flavors with tea and espresso notes adding a bit of pepper spice. Well balanced acidity with fine tannins, medium(+) length, ending with earthy notes. Nice value! — 7 months ago

On the palate the wine is decadent and opulent at the same time. There’s dark chocolate, blueberry compote, sweetwood, with backbone acidity. The finish persists, and persists some more, reminiscent of raisin and dry fig. This fortified wine is from hundred percent Napa Cab, from the stellar 2008 vintage, from single vineyard site, and rated 95-99 points by renowned critics. Jayson Woodbridge made the wine in a Port style pushing the boundaries of conformity. That alone deserves praise but I can’t help considering it a cellar trophy… There to be admired and talked about but ready to deliver pure hedonism the moment it is poured.
