NFN, tasted at Pearsons in DC, slight green notes on the nose, moderate tannins (6.5/10), dark fruits on the palate but expected more on the body and a fuller body, just an average napa cabernet

Oakville cab fruitiness, Oakville cab tannins. A solid example of mid-Napa Valley style, at a better price than most. Very enjoyable.

@Charlie Evans we're down to our last two of this 2011 jewel. Love the lush and balanced flavor of this ink toned Cab.

Solid Napa cab for the price. Dark fruit with a hint of cedar. A couple of hours in the decanter really helped.
