Pretty interesting wine. Fairly closed down, dense and structured/tannic for PN. Kinda woody/barrely at this stage, which I never love but it’s clearly well made. Not giving up a ton of fruit, but I could see this being pretty excellent in a few years in the cellar if you like this style. Rich but balanced. 13.7% 2400ft Santa Cruz mtns Mount Eden and Swan clones.
