Love this wine. Decanted for about seven hours. This was actually a unique blend for the Napa Valley Wine Auction. Tasting a lot of blackberry, black cherry, and pepper. Fabulous finish. 68% cab franc, 21% merlot, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Long day - hot bath and THIS!!! I love the description, "the 2012 Arise exudes aromas of blackberry, black currant, cocoa powder, clove, forest floor and cedar" but there are also lighter fruit notes in there as well. Perfectly drinkable right now & I'm so glad I stumbled upon it!

Expensive, but amazing, wine for our anniversary.

2011 already drinking beautifully. Plum and chocolate and very smooth. Nose is deceiving as it reveals little and is a bit citrus-like ironically -- the taste explosion after the weak nose is amazing.
