Alpha Omega Era (Napa Valley)
Inky in color, this is full bodied, powerful, fresh, sweet and fleshy.

The wine was made from a barrel selection from all of their top vineyards. 5,440 Views Tasted Sep 8, 2017 |

A bit tight on the come out, it takes a little coaxing before you find all the smoky, fruits and espresso bean. Full bodied and concentrated, the wine is silky, lush, sweet and fresh, with just a bare hint of that famous Rutherford dust on the tannins.
