Earthy and a good strong cab flavor with some Malbec notes coming through. Not too much cherry but some fruit. Would get again. Age makes all the difference on their wines

Apr 23rd, 2022Very enjoyable! Very dry and earthy with a bit of dark fruit. You can taste the Malbec in with the cab.

This 2008 vintage VA was my favorite wine from our 2010 trip to Napa Valley. It was the trip I asked for hand and heart forever! I've been holding it until today (Sept.13.2017) which is 10 yrs to the day we met! It is one of the best wines I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy. A silky smooth and long finish that I just can get enough of! I hope you have the opportunity to try some yourself.

I found Vincent Arroyo by following the Smyser abridged guide to Napa Valley. This 2004 is aging very nicely and brings back fantastic memories of tasting in Vincent's barn on a sunny day in Calistoga. I drank a lot that day....

Lovely garnet color. Great nose with fruit, floral and spice. Firm tannins that opened up quite nicely with soft mouth feel. Really nice!
