Much better than the last one I had, this is all about power. Dark fruit, very brooding profile, stacked and packed. Great quality for the price. '16 seems like such an excellent vintage for Napa, and it's starting to really show its quality, even at humble price-points.

Fairly priced at about $25 plus tax. A bit simple, has a dark fruit and boysenberry feel. Might benefit from more time. Not something I'd seek out more of.

Dark garnet colored, medium full bodied, bright vibrant black raspberry, currant and plum fruits with spice, oak and tangy acidity on a full tannin laced lingering finish.

I smelled raisins, plums, floral/baking spice, oak. Sharp but nice cherry attack, nice acid, fruit,and tannin. Yummy
