Poured through a venturi, then decanted for two hours. On first taste was very good with a typical Napa flavor profile. A little tight still, but delicious. Hour 4 after opening it was singing. Not much on the nose, but the fruit was coming through very brightly, the oak had subsided, everything was in balance, and it was heavenly. It's been a while since I had a wine I enjoyed that much.
By hour six t was still good but beginning to fade. Wish I had more.

Very nice with hints of lemon and orange. Be careful on pairing due to tannins in this wine.
