This wine is "The Rocks" from Napa and the first of 12 . Very dark black in color, the nose and palate are full of cassis and not much more at this stage (maybe a little herb/sage on the nose) but it is very young. Tannins dominate but after an hour they start to settle down. Acidity is obvious but all elements are in balance and I think this wine could go 15 yrs. easy. It had only an hour of decant time and my next one will be much more but cellar time is what is really needed. I can't wait to try my 2014's. abv of 14.9%
