96 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

 This wine slipped through the a blind tasting with everyone mistaking it for a sumptuous first-growth Bordeaux. When told the identity of the wine, one of the Belgian tasters quickly announced he was going to "order 100 cases." I was quick to point out that (1) the wine is already sold out, and (2) less than 1,000 cases were produced. I have always thought this was a terrific wine, but it was outrage...

The Story

Ann Colgin’s wines stand out as one of the most refined styles of wines produced in Napa Valley.

Viiniarvio

Viiniä ei ole maistettu vielä riittävän monta kertaa jotta siitä voitaisiin muodostaa sanallinen arvio

Superb looking bottle. Level was by the neck. Decanted three hours. A very intense, deep, dark red colour. The rich complex nose holds bouquet aromas of black currant and vanilla, spices and smoke with intense, dark fruit aromas. This beauty is full-bodied on the palate with muscular, slightly hard tannins, excellent purity with ripe intense dark fruitiness and moderate acidity. Cedary and vanilla oak aromas are adding complexity to the palate. Rich to the long, supple finish. Still young, but already very concentrated and drinkable wine, which has, many decades ahead.

Colgin's debut wine is holding up tremendously well, with aromas of plum, graphite, wet earth, dried currant, and leather saddle. There is a wonderful integration of tannins, bracing acidity, and a very long finish that persists to this day.
