Open it for Adam’s birthday. Did not have high expectation for the wine. Surprisingly, fragrant, sweet smelting come to nose when I was trying to open it. It shows toffee, berries, dark fruit and leather on the mouth. During this one and half hour meal, it open up even more on the nose and palate . Add more dimensions and depth to the wine. It only proves that best Napa cabernet can be as good as any others.

Opened and drank memorial weekend. Decanted for 30 minutes. Burgundy color, nice floral and dark fruit on the nose. Medium body, tobacco, leather, currant and loads with dark fruit long finish. No wonder they said sleeper for this vantage. I’ll give it thumbs up!!!

We enjoyed this with family. It is fruit forward (currant, licorice) with a smokey leather and tobacco finish. It is complex and full bodied with a rich burgundy color.
