Napa Valley

Medium

Natural Cork

Dark ruby in colour. This wine is in a fabulous place, hitting its stride now, balancing youthful black-fruited and brown-spiced exuberance with secondary characteristics of tobacco, sage, white pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Full-bodied and well-endowed, it features firm, structured tannins, ironstone minerality, and dusty, crushed cocoa nibs on the extended, vibrant finish. A real standout in a lineup of 40+ wines tasted at the Napa Valley Vintners on 9 September 2024, exploring the 2014 Napa Cabernets. If this wine is any indication, the best-made examples should easily hold for another 15-20 years.
