A rich, structured expression of this famed Napa Valley site, showing blackberry, cassis, a touch of raspberry and forward spice notes in both aroma and flavor profiles. Lively acidity carries it all through a blooming finish where the oak spice mingles well with the fruit. Delightful now, or age it up to ten years — longer if you’ve got a tight cellar. A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
