When you pop the cork you can instantly tell your in for a treat. When the nose hits you , the leather pencil and earth let you know what the palet is going to enjoy. A nice long finish completes this wine. It will definitely improve over time, and i will leave the remaining bottles in the cellar for at least 5 years , but if you do open now. I would decant and allow to fully open.

Wow, this is getting to be as good as it gets for Napa Cab. Generous, but accessible. Medium minus tannin. Dark black fruit palate, some smoke and grille marks. For this corner of Napa Cab, this is a serious treat.

No notes. One of the softer wines tasted today yet with enough structural backbone to lay down for 1-2 more years allowing the rest of the wine to come together a bit more.

Definitely a treat. Needs time or a day of decant.
