Opened a bottle 2 years ago & it was excellent but a bit of tannin bite on finish. Today this bottle retained the fruit aromas & palate feel but it’s finish softened so I found it bit better. — 11 days ago

I have really enjoyed the 2018 Napa vintage. This was good & certainly shows the 2018 style but was a little sleepy on that day.

Opened and got about a 20-30 min decant. The nose on this was amazing and it literally filled the room upon pouring. The flavors were accessible from the start and delightful. Less dense/heavy than the Abreu but not a lightweight by any means. Again dark fruits and a finish that lasted. Was the WOTN by many being easy going but delightful. The Abreu made you think (and was my WOTN), this just made you happy. — 3 months ago
