Clear medium lemon color. Aromas of stone and citrus fruits with gentle spice notes. The palate shows apple, Orange and lemon flavors layered with a mineral earthy nutty undertone. Very lively acid shows up on the finish, about medium, with a surprisingly smooth ending. Very nice!!

Oak Knoll, a cooler part of Napa. Still has pronounced oak, typical Napa style.

V16. Real good. Rich notes.. creme brûlée nose. Luscious, creamy, tropical and apricot fruit with hint of Meyer lemon. Round, soft oaky finish. Nicely balanced.

Tasted on tour at Beringer and had another glass in the garden listening to live music. Little butter and just enough sweetness.
