Deep garnet. Fairly fast legs. No sediment. Dark fruit. Full body, cassis, dark cherry, oak, blackberry, earthy. Dry. On the soft side and on the tannic side. Aerated and decanted.

Bold dark fruit on the nose, black berry and cassis, sweet vanilla and little bit of alcohol. Similar fruit on the palate, maybe some sweet cherry also. Medium tannins with a long (and recommended) decant. This offers Napa typicity for a reasonable price considering how expensive Napa is (picked these up for $27). For me maybe lacking other elements than oak and bold fruit, but then again at this price it’s hard to complain. Still young, but a good entry into the world of Napa without paying the big bucks.

Cork perfectly intact. A rich Napa cab followed. Dark, unctuous fruit with smooth, silky tannins. Paired with a grilled ribeye steak seamlessly. I have one more of these beauties

Another great bottle! This will evolve and continue to be great for quite some time...but very drinkable now.

Flamboyant and delicious. Two hour decant. Prime drinking.
