  July 21, 2020 - I can easily see the Vineyard 29 influence on the vinification of outstanding St. Helena fruit. The Abbey's goal of making world class wine on their own property is met here. Perfect cork pulled before decanting off of some grainy sediment. Beautiful deep garnet color and perfect clarity. Nose is full throttle Napa with the tiniest bit of heat. All the trimmings here in good, but not quite perfect balance. Fully mature and drinking very well tonight.
  
  Went back in for a couple more bottles...
