Popped and poured; enjoyed over three days. Better on Day 2 and Day 3. The 2021 pours a deep ruby with near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of red brambles, green bell pepper, tobacco, purple flowers, dry gravely earth, soft baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and satisfying. I don’t drink Pride very often but there is a lot to like. Super consistent. Drink now with some patience but better after 2026 and through 2041 — 17 days ago

Ok this is just fantastic. I don’t think people understood how great this was given when we got to it but it was probably wine of the night. — 21 days ago

This was awesome! Very impressed!
1hr+ decant. Dark red color. Dark fruit on the nose with subtle cedar. Classic Napa sweetness on the palate with ample candied fruit, bramble, and sneaky complexity. Great depth and long finish. — 3 days ago
