Community Tasting Note

Sunday, July 7, 2013 - Color shows its age. edges are a burnt umber shade. Nose is of creamy red fruits with a very pretty hi-toned profile that expresses red cassis, camphor and worn leather. Palate shows same and then some; some beautifully balanced spice box, tea leaf and spring flowers. There is a nice elegance and poise to this that only circa-90s Mondavi could pull off. Deft and robust while having a lively mid-palate ready to engage some well prepared grub. I am very surprised at the level of red-black fruits still showing as fresh and vibrant. Tannins are complete and the finish goes long. The most interesting quality on this today is what I can only call red velvet. A perfect example of what classic Napa Cabernet should be.
