  Being from a lesser lackluster vintage, Napa 2011, our expectations were modest but were exceeded as this showed bright vibrant expressive complex black fruits of currant, black berry and black cherry with notes of olive, spice, cigar box and hints of graphite, oak and vanilla.

  This is a pleasant surprise among the recent series of 2011s we've been drinking which have been either vegetal/green or pretty thin/lean. I found the Grassi to be full and flavorful and a pleasure to drink now with a bit of air time. I believe this wine will continue to evolve and improve for several more years. I appreciate this well crafted wine in a year in which we've tasted too many Napa wines that seem to have "earned" their ratings on reputation and not what is actually in the bottle.

  Very stylish. Notes of blackberry, blueberry and cocoa. Blueberry liqueur notes dominate when first opened. Then the acid spiked and the wine took on bitter tones. But patience revealed a well crafted cab. Decant!
