So Bordeaux. Tasted blind and was convinced. Very structured and young, age with confidence. Very juicy core of black/blue fruit under a shell of youthfulness. Properly old school.

Real cab in a warm vintage! Black cherry, hints of green herb/Pyrazine. Lovely, plush mid-palate bookended by chalky tannins.

Moody grundle factory. Still really young but boy what a wine.

Apr 29th, 2022Double decanted. And then double decanted AGAIN and allowed to sit for an hour while drinking down the paper planes Rose. This is a black cherry monster. This wine poured a nice dirty maroon into the glass. The nose was black cherry, a bit of spice and pepper. The entry of this wine is full bodied youthful and chalky black cherry, graphite, . Lots of fruit in the middle as well, but some herbal characteristics as well. Finishes with some black cherry. This wine is a MONSTER. And given that this wine will last for 3 decades, to be drinking this powerfully so young in the game is a testament. Amazing.

Nice big red but in my opinion, not worth the price tag. I was surprised since the guy who recommended it to me has similar taste. I still prefer Roy Estate or Caymus at this price point.

Blind reactions:
Nearly everyone on the panel was convinced this wine was a Bordeaux. In the words of Mayacamas Vineyard Estate Director @Jimmy Hayes "Very old world feel, I would in no way be surprised if this was from another country. Fruit quality is really pretty, lots of black fruit."

Winemaker/Grapegrower @Graeme MacDonald selected this as his top pick from the tasting for its elegant old-Napa restraint, impeccable balance and clear ageability.
