Rutherford, Napa Valley, California, USA
Deep Ruby with aromas of fruit, sweet cacao & spice. On the palate well structured with big fruit flavors of blackberry, raspberry & cherry with espresso & oak notes. Rustic chewy tannins, medium finish ending with fruit and oak. A bit pricey.

Delicious! I don't think many people grab this bottle due to it being $80 and not knowing anything about it. I expected something a little more "Rutherford" like, but what is actually in the bottle is an elegant expression of Cabernet with soft forgiving tannins. The nose is pleasant, with notes of mocha, nutmeg, vanilla, and baked dark fruits. The pallet exhibits notes of ripe black plum, sweet cherries, milk chocolate, and a delicious creamy finish. It was extremely smooth, and didnt have the grip I expected. I dont think it has major ageing potential, but at least another 5-7 years, so drink now - 2023.
Cheers!

This wine is tasting great! Not sure if this will get any better with more aging.

Excellent red, super accessible now with a little bit of acid on the front. Surprisingly balanced heat in the end with 15.5% on this guy. Decanted and great to drink now.
