Nose
With a few swirls the aromas of toasted walnuts, toffee, and black cherry fill your senses.
Palate
A sip reveals heady aromas that roll to the mid palate with supple tannins. Dark choco- late and cherry flavors intermingle to offer a long velvety finish of plum and cherry.
Growing Conditions
In spite of the drought and south napa earthquake, vintners are using words like “quality,” “depth of flavor,” and “excellent” to describe their expectations for the 2014 vintage in Napa Valley. Many are also noting “perfect weather,” “abundant crop” and “good fortune” among the blessings from a season where mother nature threw a rockin’ curveball to sum up the 2014 vintage: early harvest yields high quality wine grape crops.
