  Hitting its stride now. Lots of dark fruit on the nose with some earthy elements - maybe leather. The taste followed with beautiful full bodied dark fruit with some beautiful layered tannins that led you to a glorious finish. The acid balance here made this finish spectacular. A great wine and a beutiful example of Napa Cabernet!! My steak was all that better!!!

  I am getting a floral bouquet on the nose. Very fragrant. Some dark fruit, some hint of minerality. On the palate, very balanced. Nicely done wine. Table mate tasted some bell pepper but I didn’t get it at all. Really good wine.
