Nicely concentrated fruit from the Nova Vineyard in Napa. Rich and brambly with nice red raspberry fruit. Lovely through the finish, which lasts a good 30 seconds.

Black fruit, jammy, savory. M tannin, body and intensity. On the palate dark fruit, chocolate, strawberry. Finish is short.

Dark ruby color. Aromas of plum, butter, cinnamon, toast, and oak, with a hint of leather. The palate adds blackberry, strawberry, vanilla, and caramel. Soft yet full-bodied tannins and low acidity. Fruit-forward, smooth, and highly enjoyable.

A bit too jammy for my tastes but a nice wine.
