Clearly just a baby. Drank over the course of two nights from bottle. Smooth yet very disjointed with not much more than aggressive ripe fruit and cassis night one. Come the second day a nice black tea element began to emerge along with some dusty earth. As always a really nice wine for just a Napa Valley bottling.

It has potential but it’s going to need some time. I bought a bunch of the single vineyard cabs, which I’m going to wait a few years to open.

Wow. Great finding this, very happy to have a few more for later. Deep dark purple out of the bottle, lush blackberries and cherries in the nose. A touch of oak on the palate with plenty of fruit to spare. Viscous in the mouth, with a long finish. This needs about 2 hours to fully open, can lay this down for a few years easily.
