Napa 2023: the quieter version; 2/6/2023-2/11/2023 (Napa/Sonoma California): Unlike the Melbury almost ready to go from the beginning. There’s this kindof pretty dark, almost peachy note that I am liking in wines at the moment. Some freshness, good tannin, lots of softness and very easy to drink. Still too young and while there’s a bit of secondary it’s more primary in style.

Decanted 2hrs. Beautiful wine. Fruit, but lots more. Herbs, ink. Dried herbs on roast meat, mushrooms, cedar, graphite, blackberry, tar, dark chocolate. Chocolate covered fruit, fig, mint and the famous dill that Bond and Harlan have. Well defined nose. Great mouth feel. Velvety. This could be one of the best bonds I have ever had. 96+

Another Year, Another Napa (aka Winter in Wineland IV); 1/5/2020-1/11/2020 (Napa/Sonoma California): Nose on this was wonderful but the wine itself was a lot shyer than the nose would suggest. Kindof dark and brooding and almost a bit elemental in style. Can almost taste a rocky terrain to it. Very balanced. I fully expect this wine to be awesome, but it was a bit quieter today.
