2000 Artesa Napa

[winoweenie]

Could swear either BRW or myself posted on this hummer but couldn't find it so iff'n I did excuse the repitition. Med ruby. Nose slightly closed. Great entry, med center and nice 3&3/4 lapper finish. A very good effort caught up in the lackluster entusiasm for the vintage. The local dist closed this out to our local pusher and it is one tasty bottle for the buck. 89/92 17.50 by the box.13.6% alc.

Opened one of these last week.At the top of it's game.Nose is floral with tastes of strawberries,subtle french oak and hint of napa dirt. Well balanced,nice finish.Should hold nicely for another 5 to 7.I score it a 92 with a 3 lapper finish. Very nice bottle for 17.86 on sale by the case.
