Wednesday, September 3, 2008 - Compared to the Groth we had, this was stellar. In an absolute sense, it was definitely outstanding. Showed much younger, but was definitely on the leather/tobacco/licorice/tar end of the flavor spectrum vs. all fruit. There were dark, ripe fruits underneath, but the leather and tobacco seemed to be taking center stage. Structure was good, and I'd imagine this wine will continue to positively evolve (split infinitive!) for the next 3-5 years. One of the underrated producers in Napa in my opinion, this is a wine worth seeking year in and year out.
