Inky appearance, and the flavors are a mix of blackberries, plum, and a touch of earth. The tannins are present but not distracting. This is a full-bodied wine that pairs well with rich or spicy foods. Still no signs of aging in the past 15 months, so it's safe to hold, but delicious now.

Wanted to bring variety to a dinner laden with French wines :) This is really different. Exuberant, rich, thick and generous. Deceptive in its openness and yumminess, but retains structure and elegance. Another example of what only Napa can make!

Still a baby - needs air to open up and exhibit some varietal legs/tone. Upon PNP, it was monolithically big, black fruit without much texture. Still, nicely balanced. Will hold my other bottles for another year or three.

Black stone fruit wit plums, cherries and currants over leather and earth. Great wine.
