WineO Mark Review

This wine has strong aromas of blackberries, fresh blueberries, vanilla, and baking spices. It also has some notes of clove, cinnamon, and coffee.

It has a good depth on the palate with flavors of blackberry, plum, cherry, and raspberry. It’s then followed by hints of black pepper, oak, vanilla, and cocoa, along with a sublime texture, round mouthfeel, and focused finish.

This winery is known for the Judgement of Paris Competition, and more specifically for their Chardonnay. However, their Cabernet is also one of the better Napa Valley wines too!
