I’ve yet to find a wine from Jarvis I don’t enjoy. I still claim that their tour is one of the most impressive in all of Napa...incredible caves.
This was mainly cab, rounded out by merlot, cab franc and a small percentage of other varietals. Plush. Ripe. Yet still had a green streak down the middle of the palate (I’ve ALWAYS gotten that with Jarvis). Blackberry, plum, currant, black peppercorn, and floral all at the same time on both the nose and palate. Totally open and ready for business.

May 18th, 2019Updating some tasting notes after my trip to Napa a few weeks back.
Started off with a bit of a funk on the nose, then developed gracefully while tasting. Another hour of decanting would have been prime.
