Opaque ruby black hue. Perfumed nose of black cherry, raspberry, blackberries, and baking spices. Fleshy and ripe on the palate with intense dark fruit profile and pleasing minerality supported by a structure of good acidity and ample fine grained tannins leading to a long, spicy finish. Sourced from a warmer vineyard with southern exposure and aged in 30% new French oak, this wine is dominated by primary fruit characteristics at this point and will undoubtedly benefit from time in the cellar. Consumed from a 375 mL. 14.5% ABV. $95.

Incredible stuff. So fresh, like it was a decade or more younger. So beautifully integrated and balanced. Why can't more PN from California be like this?

Mushroomy, lightly gamey, potpourri; nice wine with good complexity at 30
