  PnP... fruit is muted on the nose but more present on the palate. a hint of licorice and black cherry. A little tart on the finish... maybe a little bit of acidity and a hint of tannins. Still enjoyable, but not likely to get better.

  Distinctively Napa Syrah - fruit forward but pleasant to drink.

  Clear deep ruby color. Clean nose of medium intensity with aromas of blueberry, vanilla, dried cranberries, tomato leaf, white pepper, wine is developing. on the palate, it is dry with medium acidity, medium tannins, high alcohol, medium body, medium flavor intensity of black plums, vanilla, leather, prunes, hint of chocolate, cured meat, the finish is medium minus. Good quality wine, drink now or can be aged further, but, there is not enough complexity and intensity to make it worthwhile for further aging

  Solid, a little too much alcohol, but tannins have mellowed. Drinking well now.
