Blueberry cobbler, licorice, violets, white pepper. Well made and good but could use a bit less alcohol. The alcohol is slightly obscuring things but tannins and acid are balanced. Needs a couple more years to mellow.

Could this be my favorite Napa wine? The 2012 blend is like magic honestly. All of the best aspects of each grape come out here.

OW styled to me, great restraint, savory and earthiness co-mingle with classic Napa fruit and ripe tannin.

One of the only wineries in Napa that bottle ages in the cave walls. Old-world technique for an awesome old-world styled wine. Bottles may have come down, but spirits still high and lucky stars counted.

Super fresh, loads of energy left, dried bell pepper, bright acidity, wouldn't know this is 20+ years old.

A lot of freshness here. A well-kept and well-priced Napa secret. Hope it stays that way.
