"A beautifully perfumed, expressive wine, 2011 is drop-dead gorgeous. This is an unusually deep, seamless wine for the year. Mocha, tobacco, espresso and licorice wrap around a core of intense fruit in a textured wine loaded with class. The 2011 shows just how well certain hillside sites fared in 2011. Winemaker Aaron Pott used 15% Cabernet Franc in the blend, and the signature savory-floral Franc aromatics are really popping today."
