Just not loving this wine that much, little complexity, the fruit really wasn't together, and it seemed to be a bit astringent at the end. Glad I only bought 2 bottles.

not my favourite Worthy. over oaked and lacking in structure compared to other 2010s. typical napa palate but underwhelming.
whallop of creamy buttery oak upfront. ripe concord grape, blackberry and green pepper. soy sauce. pine, graphite and red apple come with air but never fully integrate.
despite the generous oak, the fruit is still a little thin and the structure is lacking.
i've enjoyed other vintages so i won't point score. by no means a bad wine but for ~$30 a .750, you can do better.

Better than the first bottle, a bit more nuance maybe. Still not ground breaking especially given the vintage, but ok for an everyday wine.

Not as good as previous years we've tried. Maybe some time in the bottle will help.

Loved this wine. It's deep purple-red color was unique. I need to find more!
