Very intense plums, violets and blackcurrant on the nose. Very poised and rich but lovely balance and plushness. Excellent

May 29th, 20192007 vintage. Still plenty of color. Well-integrated nose. That old-school Napa flavor palette of black olive and eucalyptus riding atop the plummy cherry thrusters. Even a little cocoa powder showing up in a cameo appearance. Structural foundation holding up nicely with an easy 5-10 years of continuity. Drinking absolutely great right now. Reduced punch/grip but very harmonious.

Dec 15th, 2022If this is the last wine you ever drink, you are a lucky person! Life is too short to drink bad wine. Lush, flavorful red fruit with marvelous tannins that linger forever. A cellar is a must to watch a wine grow and mature into all it can be. My hat is off to Daphne and Bart Araujo 🍷
