“The first word that comes to mind with the 2010 Wise Acre is balance. This wine combines intensity and depth with fresh ?avors and good posture. The fruit is gorgeous– plummy and inviting, but far from one-dimensional; you get the bramble along with your blackberry in this wine. It displays those hallmarks of cassis and lead pencil that so often de?ne high quality Napa Cabernet, and offers in addition a subtle but thrilling green note that manifests as aloe, or fresh pine. This is a wine of ?nesse and restraint, ful?lling all the promises of the vintage, with a ?ne, refreshing acidity that draws you back in for more.” Kelli White and Scott Brenner, Sommeliers, Press Restaurant, Napa Valley |
