Savory-driven Napa blend with herbal complexity and surprising lift.

Savory and juicy from first sip. Cedar and graphite frame dark plum core. Dried herbs weave through black tea notes. Medium body shows remarkable lift - unusual restraint for Napa. Blackcurrant emerges mid-palate. Leather undertones add depth. Tannins provide structure without weight. This 2013 hits prime drinking now but has years ahead. Sophisticated expression of five varietals working in harmony.
