I need to quit reading the ratings. This guy was rated a whopping 92, so I was excited. The first sip was very underwhelming but it's growing on me. Having high expectations is ruining my drinking!

Felt a little more like cool climate Napa, and from what I learned I was right bc the fruit is mostly Oak Knoll. Good effort.
