Plum Market Wine Tasting. Dark ruby fruit - currants, blackberry, dark cherry, and dark raspberry. However, I thought it came across a little light and somewhat closed/not overly expressive in comparison to other vintages that I’ve had of this wine. Decent finish but not overly long nor deep. I’ll refrain from rating this bottle because it doesn’t appear to be in the best place right now or maybe it’s just the challenging vintage which wouldn’t surprise me. 88.5% cab sauvignon, 6% merlot, 3.5% petit verdot, and 2% cab franc.

Bought on a whim not expecting much…the usual Napa BS. That said, it’s better than the usual BS super extracted juju, beautiful ripe fruit, restrained and not complicated but certainly keeps you sipping. Absolutely 3++ years too young, the oak didn’t show until 3 hours after decant. I’d buy it to hold. Drink 2025-2030…94pts in 2027
