Tasted blind within a 2011-2013 vertical of this wine. This was surprising, the entire group throught this was the 2013. The wines were slox oxed for 10 hours. This wine was ready to drink. Classic tokalon notes of rich cassis, some dustiness and rich black cherry. In the mouth, well balanced and inviting. Atypical napa cabernet. Tasty!

Had alongside 2012, while the 2012 had an overall more appealing fruit quality (better vintage) however the 2011 was more mature with dark fruits after a couple hours.
