The tertiary flavors from aging made this one very enjoyable. Cherries, blueberries, forest floor and soft tannins all stood out. Mid palate and finish could have more, but the nose and palate were still beyond the common standard for a cab.

Quintessential Napa Cab, crowd pleaser. Leads with big ripe red & blue fruits and big alcohol with black pepper spice, tobacco, coffee/mocha, vanilla and cedar to compliment. Outside of the prominent alcohol, this goes down easy with nice tannic grip and enough freshness to not weigh down the drinking experience.

from a half bottle which was decanted since the cork broke. lovely from the initial sip with a bit of tannin; fruit was very pleasant. color a dark red. the fruit dissipated sadly too quickly leaving just alcohol.

Hall makes a ton of reds and many of them are pretty decent, this 2015 NV is no exception. It’s come around nicely, showing well for the price point. 92+/ 93 Points. (See previous notes).
