Community Tasting Note

Vino Nomad Likes this wine:

Saturday, April 9, 2022 - Aroma of ripe dark fruit (blackberries, black currants, and baked blueberries), allspice, new leather, dried mint, fresh leaves, and cigar box. Palate very closely tracks the bouquet, but the fruit wasn't quite as present. A bit hot, but nothing unusual for a Napa Cab. Medium acidity... maybe a notch too low for such a huge wine.

Tannin is still intense leading me to believe that this can age for quite a while longer, but this is right around the sweet spot for me. Very well integrated and complex while still displaying those dark fruits. I opened this one thinking I may have missed the peak based on other tasting notes available, but this was thoroughly enjoyable, and I predict it has several years to go before decline.
