“Bold, potent fruit flavors and a generous, late-picked expression put this undeniably delicious wine on the high end of the ripeness scale. The body is huge while the tannins are well integrated, letting the blackberries, dried cherries and dried blueberries saturate the palate. Best 2026–2036.”

Chopped apples, pears, peaches and wet stones on the nose. Crisp and focused with a medium to full body. Clean and mineral Chardonnay. Drink now.
90 POINTS – James Suckling

It’s busy in the Napa Valley these days, as the rains of winter have stopped, and we are able to work in the vineyards.

Another harvest is behind us – this one the 50th for Barbara and me – and it looks to be a fine year.
