Amazing Napa Cab from St Helena made in a very Bordeaux style. Savory nose. Tomato bisque , dried thyme, and pepper. Cedar wood and leather. Medium acid on the palate. With great tannins for structure. Dark raspberry. Wonderfully balanced and savory. 14.5% , will definitely have to get some more. Highly recommended this is my kid of Napa Cab, not another fruit bomb here. — 4 months ago

Classic BDX . Cassis and thyme on the nose. Cedar and hints of graphite in the background. Lots of acid with medium tannins which shows its youth but also it’s backbone for aging. Fantastic young Bordeaux , great structure and balanced. 13.5% — a year ago

Super herbaceous. Thyme, soy sauce , lush fruit, fig, Jammy, not a ton of acid and tannin on the 2020. Definitely more savory Vs the FAY which I also love. Big long finish that lingers. 14.8% — a year ago
