Beautiful deep crimson color, with elements of wet leaves and earth. Cherries, red berry Jolly Ranchers, cocoa, oak, and dried mint aromas. A whiff of furniture polish appears then blows off. The palate shows a full body, richness, depth, a solid middle, and a briary finish. This was good, definitely worthy of 90 points, but I was expecting a little more complexity. Give it air.

PnP. Drank with dinner at Perbacco in SF. Solid fruit forward napa cab with dark fruits, coco, and sweet tobacco. Very approachable right now. Paired very well with the short ribs.
