Napa cab at its finest! Tons of varietal character, some mint, plenty of fruit, very balanced, yet intense, like it should be as a cab from here

It’s what I like best about Bourgueil, with Bordeaux richness and some New World flare and intensity of fruit. The oak is worn very modestly, to my taste. Lovely balance within the context of New World structure.
Sweet ripe green peppers with dark fruit and modest, well-melded oak accent. Phenomenally elegant balance with just a hint of opulence, and supple tannins. Persistent.
Score: Between 9 and 9.5
