"Alluring bay laurel and bay scrub aromas complement the supple dark black fruit and toasty oak spices with hints of crème de cassis and violets. Full-bodied with building tannins that are precise and chiselled, balanced by a chalky mineral mid-palate. The lengthy finish reveals notes of Mexican mocha, resolving with a welcome spicy nuance. From Houyi Vineyard, a 22-acre estate parcel planted atop Napa Valley’s Pritchard Hill, this property was acquired by Realm from the Chang family in 2022."
