Fruit bomb but not too slutty. Pronounced aromas of blackberry and dark fruit with some sweet vanilla oak, herbaceous sage, and cocoa. The sage distinguishes WA from Napa for me. Not super complex but drinking well at this stage with a 2 hour decant. About medium acidity with velvety tannins.

One of the cleaner bottles of this I’ve had, much less VA than prior. Still benefits from air though. Perfumed crunchy ripe juicy fruits. Great Bourgogne.

Drinking well pnp. Bruised red apple, apple skin, citrus, pastry dough, nuts. Much more integrated than previous bottles.
