Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim. Not showing much age.
Nose of black currants, black plums, raisins, dried figs, vanilla, cedar, cola, coffee, spices, chocolates, earth, vegetables, herbs, eucalyptus, turmeric, peppercorn, celery, graphite and alcohol. What a wonderful nose.
Medium plus in body with high acidity and fat legs.
Sweet on the palate with nice balance and nice length on the finish.
This 13 year old sweet wine from Napa Valley is drinking so beautifully right now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
Showing great complexity at this point, with lots of chocolate and coffee notes, intertwined with spices and earth notes.
This Single Vineyard is interesting and tasty. A great wine to finish the evening with. Smooth and elegant. Just fabulous.
100% Petite Sirah grapes were aged in oak barrels for 30 months.
19% alcohol by volume.
95 points.
$90.

Too soon to drink this one. Fruity and young when first opened. Held it open for a couple weeks and it evolved into a much better, bolder port. Lay it down for many years and it shows evidence of being very good.

This has improved a lot with age, as expected. So much better than our last bottle a few years ago. Beautiful vintage port, deep dark fruit.

Deep, dark ruby color. Heavy fruit. Light sediment. Short finish (for a port blend). Maybe a little early to be drinking.

Think desert in a bottle, so rich and wonderful. Kept it in the cellar and enjoyed it for months.
