Napa Valley, California, USA
Had some and then we were suggested to have mint chocolate bark and it was totally different, of course.

Same comments as before. Needs a decant. An hour + in it really softens and opens us nicely. At that point it all comes in balance. Black fruit, high acidity, strong tannins and ease up with air. Drinks well.

Jun 16th, 2023Deep ruby. Oaky tight up front, black cherry, tobacco. Needs to rest longer or a good decant of at least an hour. Then the fruit starts to open up. This will be my last 18 for at least another year.

Apr 28th, 2022One of my favorite value wines. Same notes as before. Unfortunately while traveling I forgot a corkscrew, so it’s a little corky 😂 Still a great wine though!

Jan 17th, 2022Still a bit tight. Def not a pnp, give it at least an hour decant. Then it opens up just as nice as the 17 I’ve had. Notes for 17 apply. Big ripe black fruit, bright yet nice mouthfeel. Amazing value.

Sep 22nd, 2021This wine is sooo good. Perfectly ripe blackberry, with a light tannic structure but structured so nicely. Easy to drink, perfect with a nice ribeye. Hidden Napa gem for sure.
