| Vintage: | 2002 |
| Varietal: | Red Blend |
| Appellation: | Napa Valley |
| Alcohol %: | 14.2 |
| Tasting Notes: | Classic black-ruby color typical of this blend. Ripe, brambly, coffee and black cherry aromas showcase the varietal, while black olive and dark cocoa scents suggest the wine?s Rutherford origin. Medium full-body and firm structure dominant, with the cherry-plum and herb Merlot adding nuance in the finish. Chewy tannins, fine minerality, with vanilla oak-spice adding an elegant touch of sweetness. |
| Ratings: | 90 Points - Wine Enthusiast - December 1, 2005 Cherry and chocolate undertow to the currant flavor. |
