May 15, 2014 - Meeting of Minds OG Crew (Craig's Place): Popped and poured; consumed over a four hour period. This bottle had a hefty amount of funk on the first pour...and I liked it. I guess I was expecting something a bit more fruit forward...you know, approachable for the masses. This was not that wine on this day. While a good amount of fruit was certainly present and while it's likely that one would not mistaken it for an old world version of PN, it's still a pleasant surprise to get that kind of complexity from Napa Valley.
