2011 Black Stallion "Bucephalus" Red Blend Napa Valley 750ML

Dave's Tasting Notes: Aromatic and Plush

The 2011 Black Stallion Bucephalus Red Blend reveals bold Napa expression with layered richness. Toasty oak, mocha, and ripe plum dominate the nose, followed by flavors of blackberry, spice cake, and dark espresso. The palate is full-bodied with supple tannins and hints of vanilla and leather on the finish. A muscular blend ideal for grilled meats or fireside sipping, showing well now or with short-term cellaring.
