Started to open up after 2 1/2 hours of air, but, really came into its own after about 5 hours. Excellent Napa cab; however, somewhat overpriced of late but in line with many of what the other wineries are doing. I enjoy this wine and will continue to purchase.

PNP. Plum, dark cherry, raspberry, mocha, oak. Slightly grippy tannins. Right now this is a nice, if primary, Napa cab. Drink with decant, or preferably hold for a couple more years.

Chimney Rock never disappoints. Unfortunately, once the prices started to heading above $80.00 I lost interest. Fortunately, I found some 2015 Stags Leap on sale for $50.00. I will buy more if they haven't run out.

Becca pulled from the cellar, WAY too early IMO. Not surprisingly, very primary at this time. Oak and vanilla dominate some blue and red fruit. Medium body with a fairly short finish at this time but I suspect that this will improve with cellar time.
