Not your typical Napa cab. Fruit, not tannins, forward. As a Merlot/Syrah lover, I like it though. Some tannins, but as said, more penetrating fruit. Some hints of smoke, but little oak. Different, but enjoyable as long as you do not expect a classic Napa cab.
Straight out of the bottle, dark ruby, sharp, dark berries on the nose, a bit tart to taste. Decanted for 1/2 hour and it really opened up, though not as big and bold as most Napa cabs. That said, we loved this bottle and are happy we have a few more.

Second bottle from the case. I think this will be really nice after laying down a few years.
