A real gem. Beautiful. Definitely let it open for an hour before drinking. Poised, deep, dark cherry flavor profile and tons of structure. Nicely extracted. A great Napa cab.

Deep purple clear without sediment. Not expressive in the nose. Grapy rich black fruits. Subtle tannins ( would have preferred a bit more structure. Lovely wine

Just opened and drinking immediately. Still very good. It will be outstanding tomorrow if there is any left.

Nice start but tannins dominate finish. 2017 might not be representative of this wine.

Exactly what I want in a Napa Cab. Cherry, cocoa and a touch of vanilla. I decanted 2 hours
