Our 2007 Private Reserve is a very solid, deep, dark red/black with purple hues. Lovely aromatics of black fruit, chocolate, mocca and berries that draw you into this wine. Lovely solid entry with a firm, grippy tannin. Rich fruit weight that is a “class above” and supported by an amalgam of French oak flavors of vanilla, toasty oak and spice.

A huge palate that just keeps going and going. Big blocky tannins appear a little proud at present but given time will soften into a true classic Napa Cabernet for those patient enough.
