Coravin only. Sweet fruit, cherries, deep, layered flavors.

PnP - beware soft cork. Opened up and smoothed out within the 90 minutes of it being consumed. Last glass the best. Rich and ripe blackberries dominate, but some nice layers of blue and red fruits. Vanilla Oak in small proportion. Some dusty tannins through the finish with some dried herbs as well. It'll likely remain at peak for at least a few more years.

Really interesting. Can taste the earth in this one. Fruit forward but super interesting on the finish.

It surprisingly felt a little bit tannic on the palate, but it kept improving with time in the glass. Maybe not at prime yet? (From 375)

Big Napa reds are not my favorite style of wine, but this was substantially better than I expected (or better, at least, than previous reviewers suggested). Concentrated dark fruit flavors that unfolded in waves. Tannins were mostly resolved, but still present, and there was plenty of acidity left. Started out with heavy blackcurrant and blueberry on the nose, after 45 min the capsicum and black pepper started to emerge. Fantastic in every way.
