James Suckling Review Rated 92 Attractive, ripe dark berries, dominated by blackberries and framed in oak spice. The palate has a very fluid, ribbon-like core of plush dark-fruit flavor. Smooth, long finish. Approachable now.
The wine is sourced from five small, family-owned vineyards located on Diamond Mountain, Yountville, and Coombsville. Spicy aromatics of licorice and mocha lead to a rich palate of cassis and black cherry flavors. The wine has a lively acidity that will support the flavors for years of exceptional enjoyment. However you won't have to wait as it is already eminently enjoyable.
