96pts-WS: A seductive style that’s openly fruity, showing supple plum and black cherry notes, with floral scents and spices, turning creamy and gaining a mocha-espresso-vanilla scent that’s enticing. Finishes with a smooth texture, fine grained tannins and then another burst of fruit.--J.L., The Wine Spectator's Advance, 6/2013 

Winery Notes: Opaque crimson color, intriguing nose of freshly tilled Napa vineyard soil.

The presence of this wine includes fine textural components balanced by an array of flavors

including; ripe cherry, dried rose petal, cacao, mocha and cassis. A seamless, rich and alluring,

youthful Napa Cabernet. I find this vintage perfectly complex and balanced. This will go down

in our books as a difficult year that yielded a small production of very fine wine.

--Chuck Wagner, Winemaker
