  Lots of pepper and spice upon opening with tobacco and earth coming through. Dark fruits start to emerge with air. Elyse continues to make one of the best wines for the money in Napa. At 8 years old this wine is just entering its prime. I suspect it has a long life ahead still. Let it breath if you open now.

  Dark and dense. Earthy complexity to purple/black fruit. Breathing allows the fruit to come forward over the earth/leather/mushrooom.

  Fantastic Bordeaux blend. Nice dark bright fruits come through with good oak and balanced Tannins.

  Bordeaux blend with distinct cab franc influence. Red fruit, earth, pepper. Nice acidity. Could use more time for the tannins to settle down a smidge. Well made, which is becoming more rare at this price point in Napa.
