2019 Napa Valley Meritage (94-Points)

Medium ruby in the glass. Soaring yet succulent bouquet with cherry candy and powdery, fresh, linen-like florals mixing with forest floor...deeper base notes of dark fruit and fresh-turned earth lie in the background. Racy and dynamic on the palate delivering nicely attenuated red and purple fruits set atop fantastic, mineral-coated tannins that go supernova on the mid-palate before presenting a constellation of pretty fruit notes that echo through a long finish. Sexy dyn-o-mite!
