Napa
u: ten into neck, two bottom neck
"A wine of great intensity and richness, it displays classic notes of licorice, barbecue smoke, creme de cassis, cedarwood and forest floor. Full-bodied with sensational purity, a multidimensional mouthfeel and a long, voluptuous finish with no hard edges, it has only reached mid-adolescence, and has at least two decades of life ahead of it. " R. Parker for TWA, 98 pts. 11/13
12 bottles
Estimate $1,800-2,400
