Blind reaction:
"Has a brambly, earthy quality I associate with mountain fruit, maybe Sonoma Mountain? Fruit forward and rich, but not jammy. Light new oak sweetness. Definitely good restraint, well made."
After the reveal:
"Oooh nice, from western Napa - not far off from Sonoma Mountain at all! I have a soft spot for the classic small family wineries, especially those making zin in Napa—not something you see too often anymore. You can tell they understand their land and vineyards well. This wine is in that family's blood." — 9 years ago
