Both dark red and tart cherries, black pepper, oak and some nice tannic structure. A bit of earthiness as well. Really opened up after about 30 mins. Cab Franc/Cab Sav/Merlot 70/22/8%. Really great stuff.

Love this stuff! From one of my fav underrated Napa producers. 70% cab franc, 22% cab sav, 8% merlot. Deep red color. Tastes of dark cherries, red raspberry, a touch of dark chocolate, and some white pepper w a nice tannic bite. Enough acidity left to keep getting better for at least 5 more years.
