Friday, January 26, 2024 - Nose: cherry, wet dirt, bramble, cigar box, prune, mint/menthol
Palate: black cherry, blackberry, cigar box, pencil shavings, flint, dried herb; medium finish of black pepper, black cherry, flint, dried dirt; medium tannins, kind of chalky; medium + body, smooth; medium acid
Overall: this vintage never disappoints with Napa Cabs! Still singing, though the tannins are a bit drying. Otherwise it’s still got great flavor and structure.
