Perhaps just the company tonight, the food pairing or some palate inconsistency on my part but this showed a bit better than my last encounter.
Beautiful (French) oak on the nose and nicely balanced on the palate (if tasted blind and knowing other of Martha McClellan's wines) this would have me in Napa.
I should've bought more and for all you 2011-naysayers....so should you!

Could be an excellent wine, but the alcohol (16%) is a bit overpowering

Very smooth. Probably needs a couple more years in the cellar for the optimal pallet.
