The Hora is their entry level wine from the young vines on their Estate.
It’s the lighter side of Bordeaux blended fruits; dark cherries, strawberries, blackberries. The body is thinner. More fruity & red floral than their Founders and Cathiard but certainly pleasurable to enjoy earlier inside 15 yrs.
Photos of my visit today. Impressive they copper all their own barrels. Believe they are the only ones in the Napa Valley that do.
Owners & founders since 2020 and is the same ownership as Smith Haut Lafitte in Bordeaux.
