Decanted for an hour or so before being approachable. Chocolate covered cherries and intense ripe berries with a hint of menthol and earth. Full bodied and well balanced with a lovely long finish.

This is an unfair rating as it followed two second flights of top Napa producers. Relatively speaking, big fruit bomb, less balance but nice long finish. (P.S. You need to view the previous two ratings to appreciate my comments, but you'll get it!)
