  A well-crafted wine, with substantial complexity, as many previous notes will attest. A very round, fleshy fruity body; with more glycerin than tannin on the slightly alcohol-hot finish.

  Coffee bean, vanilla, boysenberry, blackberry, huckleberry, tobacco, and a long finish with licorice. Great stuff has 4 more years at least.

  Oh yes! An old favourite in a very good place now. Everything you’d expect from top Napa Merlot. This has loads of structure and complexity but is also just lovely glass to enjoy with pretty much everything
