This is my last bottle. Decanted for 2 hours. Cedar and espresso nose represents the character of Rutherford. On the palate, licorice, animal leather and dark berry (plum and currant) flavor hold a long lasting. This is a very good demonstration of NAPA cab with purity and approachable structure. The disadvantage part is not complex enough to achieve big. However, the dry style gives the wine a little more mature than other off-dry NAPA cab. Overall, this is reasonable and decent one, but just lacks some X factors.

On the sweeter side of Napa cabs. Plenty of youth still remaining.

Got at woodmans. Possibly poorly stored. Had one a year or two ago that was better
