  Dark smooth fruit, drinking well. Thought both alcohol levels and oak impact were well managed here (not always the case in Napa high end), though ultimately it's not a particularly interesting wine - but quite enjoyable nonetheless.

  Very smooth, from the rich, jammy nose, to the full palate of dark fruit and lingering finish. I did not denote an alcohol burn, as referenced in my earlier tasting notes. Excellent wine, drinking beautifully now with a 90 minute decant.

  Was the star on Xmas, paired with tenderloin and following 2018 Realm BTK. This was on point tonite and in a perfect place. I wish I had more. The corks should be popping on these babies

  Nothing wrong here. Should hold for a few more years if desired but doubt it will get much better. Better back end than the front, which if I had to choose only one would be so. Lingers on the pallet for a good 2 minutes, mixing perfectly with the bleu cheese and crackers I’m noshing on alongside it.

  Big wine that struggles to hide the alcohol. Great with very big dishes, like pasta with tomato sauces and the like. I truly wish the bottle didn't weight 50% more than the wine itself.....I measured the empty bottle and it weighed 2 pounds, 10.9 ounces, compared to a Dunn Napa that I had to compare it with which weighed 1 pound 3.8 ounces.....That's more than DOUBLE the WEIGHT! Think about this, if you are paying to have this shipped (which most of us are, one way or another)...that is an additional 17 pounds/case of 12. This will be the last I buy from this winery.
