Decidied to open this while the taste of the 96 was still fresh. Continuity was evident. This Alexander Valley vineyard turns out consistantly fine fruit and Gina knows what to do with it. A tad deeper in color, slightly more complex nose and all-around just a hair better bottling. Same brown-sugar, earthy nose and taste and a 4&1/2 lapper finish. Silky tannins need another 3-5 to soften. Lovely juice. 92/92 24 by the box. 14.2% alc.WW
