Dark ruby in color with a wide purplish rim.
Earthy nose and medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red and black fruits with cedar, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs, peppercorn, mediterranean spices and chocolate notes.
Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and raspberries.
This Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley is extremely young and needs 10 years in the bottle to mature properly. Elegant and fruit forward, yet restrained.
I've had many different vintages of this wine, but never had it so young. Not as powerful as some other vintages, but already complex and nicely balanced.
Feels like a good quality Left Bank Bordeaux, and will continue to age nicely, and get better in the next 20 years.

Our distinctive white blend marries the crisp honeyed citrus fruit of Chenin Blanc (80%) with the plush body, soft floral and juicy peach notes of Voignier (20%) for a lush, versatile and delicious wine. — 6 months ago
Another solid vintage. Bright lemon yellow color. Aromas of orchard fruit, wild flowers and ginger spice. Flavors of peach, green apple, grapefruit, gooseberries and a bit of mineral. Distinctive and pleasant saline note on the medium/plus finish. Crisp acidity and well balanced. Well rounded texture. I thought I may have waited a bit too long to open this wine, but was pleased with how fresh and vibrant it was. Consistently high quality from an excellent producer. — a month ago

This Napa Cabernet is drinking very nicely now.
I've had a few vintages of this wine and it is always enjoyable. This vintage seems a tad too fruit forward for me, but easy drinking and delicious.
A very nice entry level Napa Cabernet.
