From my bedroom at 70°F placed 30 min in the fridge, then opened for another 15 min or so and quick double decanted before going to the restaurant (10 min drive).
This wine is at a perfect drinking moment right now and it feels that will stay at the top of its game for at least another 3-5 years.

Intense dark red color, full body, nice balance of fruit-acidity-tannins with a touch of oak. This is an incredible QPR wine. Neighbors of the world famous Stag’s Leap Cellars fir half of the money!

This is an outstanding napa cabernet. Dense, well-extracted, balanced and silky smooth. Decanted for 1 to 2 hours, this wine gets better and better as it opens up.

almost vanilla. Very nice nose, on the palate, and finish.
