Top Notes For
This wine tends to surprise me often. Great value, wonderful aromatics without over-oaking the wine. Fuller side of medium bodied with great structure. Finishes longer than most Napa Francs that I've had at this price point.

Good work in a tough vintage. Balanced, tasty, and refreshing. 14.5% abv is completely integrated. At $27 tough to beat.

Sep 4th, 2020Nice wine to start the weekend. Been wanting to try this one for a while. Notes of dark cherry. Can really taste the wood in this one. Would visit this one again.
