Flight 1 (4 Notes)

  • 2014 Smith-Madrone Chardonnay

    USA, California, Napa Valley, Spring Mountain District

    Showing mineral aromas and flavors, citrus zest, white pepper, and dusty spices- complex throughout. Lean, silky structure, with bright acidity, and an ample finish. Excellent.

  • 2013 Smith-Madrone Cabernet Sauvignon

    USA, California, Napa Valley, Spring Mountain District

    Aromas of currant, cracked pepper, cedar, violet, tobacco. Broad and expansive on the palate- with medium weight and elegantly rich density. Medium acid, and firm dusty tannins, finishing with full depth and length. Excellent vintage in classic Smith-Madrone style. Awesome wine.
