Tasting Comments
Deep crimson purple in color, rich and full-bodied with excellent concentration.
It has fresh fruitiness and balanced acidity, as well as finesse and elegance.
The aroma is full of creme de cassis, cigars, chocolate, herbs and black berries, while the taste is rich with notes of cassis and plum and fragrant espresso.
A beautifully structured wine with rich tannins and layered complexity that gives it a long finish.
A perfect expression of Napa Valley's individuality.
