This wine felt weak at the price point. 2018 was a good vintage for Napa, yet the fruit and licorice aromas in this wine were very light. For me it was too sweet with not enough acidity , even after letting it decant, it didn’t improve and it actually lost some characteristics .

Bold pinot with rich red fruit tones of raspberry and cherry ripe for aging. Almond menthol tertiaries that give the wine a great interesting length. Caramel cherry and violet notes on the nose
