Popped and poured. This young wine is ready to go. Deep purple hue, a nose of plum jam and cedar. Red and black fruits 9n the palate with some sandlewood and well integrated tannins.i didn't get the high acidity or alcohol levels that others reported. This was a fun, yummy, easy drinking Napa cab with a good qpr. Drink up.

Dark garnet color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of soapstone, currants, florals and raspberries. Flavors of raspberries, cherries and strawberries. Medium acidity, medium tannin, full bodied. Drink or hold. I'd lean towards drinking over the next couple of years.

Lots of obvious new oak usage on this. Not very green and not very cab like. Ripe and jammy red fruit, high alcohol, high oak on the palate. Very silky tannins, medium acidity, high alcohol. Very extractive, too much so for me, but I can see some people enjoying this. Almost saccharine in quality.

Red fruits on the nose. Medium tannins, medium alcohol. Sweeter than expected. Notes of mocha on the finish. Very enjoyable.

little young, but really good - decanted for 2 hours, and opened up really well. Good now and at least 2 -3 years I would say.
