When I tasted it alongside the single vineyard varietals at the estate the Napa blend was unfortunately superior, not the best situation when its a quarter of the price vs the single vineyards.

I tend to rate wines based on others I have tried, and usually comment on the negatives, perhaps in excess... I am perhaps overly optimistic on wines ratings at times, but I do like to rate them vs others I have tried at the price point and thus the negative comments outweighing the positives in this case. To me this wine is far superior to many lower priced wines I have tried that would surely get 88-90 points. I appreciate the feedback, Cheers
2/28/18, 8:02 AM - I went back to my notes I wrote while we were tasting, and I wrote down that the 2014, Tapestry Red Blend was 40% Cab Sauv and 60% Merlot. I could have written it down mistakenly however. Ill be back at the winery next week and will confirm the exact percentages then. Either way this wine was unlike any Merlot or Cab Sauv I have ever tried, something special about the Merlot fruit they source.
