Dark fruit including black currant, black raspberry & blackberry. Nose of stone fruit, mostly plum. Tart acid and medium tannins for rich meaty food. Crisp finish. Sophisticated Napa. Not huge depth, though. Very nice.

Deep scarlet color, nose is super jammy. Taste has great fruit, long finish, good balance of acidity and tannins. This is one incredible, hand-crafted wine. Alcohol felt pretty hot, spindly legs. Great value for the price.

Inky purple, long lazy legs. Nose is Fruit forward, currant and blackberries, earthy. Velvety smooth mouthfeel, fruit continues delicious and complex, absolutely lovely. Long lingering finish. Worth decanting for a couple of hours, opens up beautifully. Luscious with pasta, really with anything. Glorious with good cheese. Another amazing Modus Operandi expression.
