As with most Rutherford,Napa wines, this is as smooth as silk with a balanced flavor. Perfect for any occasion. — 5 days ago

This is another terrific Napa red from the problematic 2020 vintage.

Purple in color with a short purple rim.

Full-bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

This Napa Merlot is still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already enjoyable, even by itself.

Wine Enthusiasts 96 points.

Nicely balanced and delicious. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

A blend of 68% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. Aged for 20 months in (55% New) French Oak barrels.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

A bit harsh with flint tobacco and minerality. A deep vibrant red color with a long lingering aftertaste. Will be great in 10 years. Too big now🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 3 years ago

Surprisingly delicious at 10 years of age. Wonderful ripe Napa jelly fruit. Surprisingly good acid, the tannins have receded but still provide some structure. Rarely drink Napa merlot but this is compelling. Certainly somewhat biased by the fact that I worked on this vineyard in 2011. Nice pairing with skirt steak on the grill. — 3 years ago

9.3

A charming left bank blend with a high percentage of CF for 15’. Blueberry, cassis, espresso, dried herbs, and lavender. Hint of crushed rocks too. Medium to full body. A harmonious palate with round gentle acidity, lush texture, and grainy yet polished firm elegant tannins. Lingering lightly candied finish.
Finesse and classy, yet so approachable. — 4 years ago

89% Cabernet Sauvignon and 11% Petite Verdot. Dark ruby color with some purple highlights and a thin garnet rim. Aromas of black fruit, cocoa, cola and a very noticeable hint of mint. The full bodied palate features black berry/plum/cherry fruit, tobacco, dark chocolate, dried herbs, baking spices and black pepper. Long and lingering earthy finish features a touch of vanilla. Big structure, savory and well softened tannins. Aging nicely. Thanks for the bottle, John P. — 4 months ago

Incredible as always. I enjoy this style of wine in between light red and rich rosé. Rain is a subtle story. Forest berries compote, white pepper, pomegranate, underbrush and red flowers. Almost perfectly balanced, juicy and delicious. I would drink this wine every day. Casually.

Tasted as part of Mixed Bag Vol. 1. — 3 years ago

2012. Tropical pineapple core and crisp vanilla oak made for a delicious pairing with grilled bacon-wrapped turkey tenderloins. Love to have warm winter days to fire up the Weber! — 3 years ago
