Another fine vintage for this veteran Napa winery. Shows a classic Napa character, with ripe flavors of cassis and blackcurrants and finely-ground, complex but easy tannins. The oak, which contributes vanilla, smoke and woody spice, is strong, but not oppressive. Doesn't seem to be an ager, and best enjoyed soon.
