While not charmless, this kind of wine is a good example of what’s gone wrong with the Napa wine business. People with oodles of cash and success in other arenas seem to assume that their prior success will be replicated in their foray into wine. Not so fast, Mr. Successful.
Thankfully I’m drinking this while it still has fruit. I can only imagine the horror if I waited 15 more years. Unremarkable at best
