Good acidity propping up a medium bodied Napa Merlot. The palate has some nice complexity, but it is way too early to drink this wine. This has a long life ahead of it and I think 5 to 10 years will integrate this wine. The stuffing is definitely there.

This is a special wine. Expressive nose with red fruit and a hint of forest floor. Ethereal palate, so balanced. One of the better California Pinots I’ve had in the last year or more.

Maybe I’m sensitive, but this seems like there is a ton of VA. The alcohol is also a little high for my tastes. Probably flawed.
