Top Notes For

Sipping Fine Wine

8.5

Founded by Corley family in 1970 and now produces 15,000+ cases of Napa Valley wines. Aged for 22 months in French oak (35% new), aromas of red fruits and spice. On the palate this full-bodied wine shows flavors of strawberry and red plum with some cola, tea and cinnamon notes. Medium finish, developing tannins ending a bit grippy but should ease up with a bit of bottle age.
