WineDiva's Review

Plush, supple, concentrated.
This Napa Valley favourite is celebrating 40 years for the 2012 vintage and its special anniversary label pays homage to the Wagner family.
As expected it is redolent with purple berries, vanilla, sweet spices, crushed floral notes and warm chocolate. It is supple with generous fruit, mocha, coriander, sarsaparilla and baking spices. Expect wonderful intensity and a long smooth finish.
Congratulations on 40 years!
