Drinking Window: 2021 - 2025
A bold Napa Cab with a characteristic nose of cassis, chocolate and mint. Made by Linda Trott, this has well-judged oak (40% new French barrels for 12-16 months), with notes of vanilla, spice, blackcurrants and blackberries, well integrated tannins and a lingering finish.
