Black fruit, blue fruit, plums, barnyard and dark chocolate. Incredible QPR.

N: Dirrt, Roses, slightly cooked, Resinous, plums, like baked Italian, tomato.
P: very harmonious with rough edges, mouth coating, bit o’ chocolate, tannins in balance. I could use more acidity, but the wife says fine.
This is 2011, which was a terrible* year in Napa, but… exactly why I grabbed it. I shy away from the over-plush renditions of cab.
Great qpr @WTSO

Amazing. 11 year old Calistoga cab. Big, some nice earth and mineralogy. Stood up to a dry aged rib eye. Patience for the win!
