2013 opened Sept 2017. Cassis and eucalyptus on the nose. On the front mouth: cherries that are still a little bit sour. Some tannic high notes mid-palate -- but with a silky soft finish. Nothing offensive about this wine, but it's a bit meh for the $75 I paid for it. Of course, one has to consider Napa Valley price inflation, but this is a decent vin ordinaire. BTW the high notes depart after it breaths for half an hour. I think it's less meh right out of the bottle ;-)
