Deep red ruby.. heavy bodied, low acidity, elegant tannins. Opens up to notes of blackcurrant, cinnamon, leather. Very pleasant to drink!

Aug 13th, 2023Considering the price-point this really is just ok for me. Herbaceous notes, some cassis, dark plum. Fruit forward on the palate, not much tannin for me on this vintage and zero acid. Very short and unmemorable finish. Bit of a pop and drop. If this was $40 it would be a steal, hovering $80 expect more. Sorry this just didn’t do it for me. 14.5%

Mar 27th, 2022Our fourth of 4 wines of the meet the meat event. Always a big fan of Napa CS’s. This is a big wine that will show much better in 10 years. Never have followed Schrader but need to put them on the list.

Jul 29th, 2021PnP’d. Inky color. Pretty one dimensional but deep and chewy. Dark fruit and ample baking spices with some oak. Very young obviously and needs like a decade plus in the cellar.
