My second approach to this wine and it feels amazing. Great balance, pleasant acidity and silky tannins. Buttery wood and fresh fruit. Love it and now want to get a hold of older vintages. Definitely worth a try.

Clean and gentle nose of blackberries, blueberries, figs, plums, cherries, oak, licorice, strawberry jam, vanilla, spices, bubble gum, metals, cherry pie, nail polish remover and peppercorn.
Full bodied, rich and smooth, with medium acidity and great looking legs.
Fruity on the palate, with blueberries, plums, cherries, strawberries, licorice, vanilla, leather, pencil lead, spices and peppercorn.
Long finish with firm tannins and black pepper.
This is a great Napa Cab. Great looking bottle too.
Nicely balanced and complex.
Needs an hour (at least) to open up, so be patient.
Enjoyable by itself or with food, like a nice piece of steak.
I enjoyed it all by itself, it's like having a candy.
Delicious.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
