2011 in Napa Valley was a cooler season, with moderate temperatures and October rain. We were fortunate to pick the day before the rain, and again at the end of the month after a second heat spike that provided ideal ripening. This resulted in an opportunity to create a stellar wine with soft tannins yet strong structure. The 2011 is approachable early, it has a delightfully delicate nose, tastes of red and black fruits, chocolate, and attractive charcoal, and should cellar well into the next decade.
