With so few Napa Wines hitting the mark so surely, this folks is a TEXT BOOK example of how it's done right. Tasting this wine is a pure pleasure, it reminds me of a left bank Bordeaux. Lean where it should be, vivid acid taming abundant fruit and wonderfully stunning minerality. The structure of this wine could easily go another 10 years. Plums, cocoa dust, blackberries, cedar and dried underbrush. You can spend more, but you honestly won't get more! #winelover #wine

Nice surprise for $40 bucks. Some great mint on the nose and palate- reminds me of a Girl Scout Thin Mint in a good way. Fruit could be a little more assertive, but overall very unique for a reasonable price. Revising to 9.3 after an hour decant. For whatever reason this one's got my number.

Hints of cedar & mocha with big dark fruit and a long 30+ second finish.
