This is a deep and complex Bordeaux blend (depending on the vintage, 14’ has more Cab) that feels overbearing at times. Nose of ripe plum, fig, espresso, thyme, leather, hint of tobacco, and nice touch of violet. Full body. Dense yet juicy. Lightly candied velvety tannins.

Big. A little over the top. Decant this one ☝🏿 if drinking it any time soon.

High quality fruit, but faceless in a crowd of high end Napa cabs. Especially for the dough.

At Bourbon Steak / Mina ... quite nicely priced wine . May have been the ‘13 Napa .. really good . Dry and big enough for the steak !

At first a little heat on the nose. Give a lot of air before drinking it. At one hrs began to developed a wonderfully nose. Love the nose more that the mouth feeling.
