5/1/2021 - Jbarryleonard Likes this wine: 95 pointsNapa - All my COVID finds; 4/29/2021-5/5/2021 (Napa): Off the charts aromatics with plenty of acidity and tension to age. Depending on how many you have, I wouldn’t touch this one for a while. Score represents the wine today but this has plenty of upside. |

5/3/2021 - Jbarryleonard Likes this wine: 96 pointsNapa - All my COVID finds; 4/29/2021-5/5/2021 (Napa): The 2018 was a beautiful representation of Rutherford with impeccable balance and minerality in the mid palate. Like a lot of 2018's, it certainly needs some time to add depth.

2/28/2021 - Jbarryleonard Likes this wine: 97 pointsOh boy was this good. Universal favorite against strong competition over the weekend. I know it’s young but this wine seems to be in perfect balance and already showing significant complexity. I’m sure it is going to continue getting better but is truly a great wine already.

12/18/2020 - Jbarryleonard Likes this wine: 95 pointsAmazing upon opening the bottle. Deep fruit and earthy flavors, elegant and complex. Splash decanted it for 3-4 hours but it definitely didn’t need that much time. It was amazing with dinner but lost some of the complexity it had in the beginning. I think an hour of air would have been plenty.
