Enjoyed alongside some other Napa legends from the 80’s and 90’s. From the jump, a touch funky and showing a bit more green and with brighter red fruit, than the Monte Bello, Dunn Howell or Monticello tonight. Lots of life left in this but I don’t expect it to really improve much from where it is. I’d say drink now
