March 21, 2024 - It’s nearing the end of its drinking window, but if properly stored it’s still delicious and very much the model of great Napa Cab. For those who enjoy a fruit bomb, this is still the bomb. Plum, black cherry, espresso, sweet spices, and a creamy smooth texture. Pair it with ribeye served rare and enjoy the synergy. PnP 65 degrees.

November 23, 2023 - Had with Thanksgiving dinner, and this didn’t disappoint. Deep rich purple color, no bricking. Lots of purple paint and rich currant on the nose. This is so soft and velvety on the palate. Lovely mouthfeel. Lots of purple berry and lather notes. Almost Syrah like with a meaty component. Finish lasts well over a minute. Great experience!
