Won't score this because of how deep into the wedding it was opened. Powerful and rich wine with good earth, mineral notes

A fantastic example of a Napa version of a right Bank wine. Grapes are from Knights Valley in Napa. Aromas of sweet tobacco, blue fruit and some floral hints. This wine feels silky smooth in your mouth with sleek tannins. Beautiful tastes of blueberries, currants, plums and a little licorice. Beautiful acidity and a long tasty finish.

Nice Cab franc, I'll do a side by side with the Patria & Leviathan with my last bottle. Parker 98, said it was Californias version of a Cheval Blanc. I wouldn't know, I've never had a Cheval Blanc

A fantastic blend of cab franc and merlot. The cab franc dominates with lots of dusty herbaceousness and spice softened by blue fruit notes that probably are coming from the merlot. This is a young wine still working to go from youth to adulthood. The tannins are very evident and slightly gritty but overall a nicely structured wine. This wine will most likely rock your socks in a decade. I don't drink very many right bank Bordeaux's but this is a fantastic modern interpretation of those standards.
