Roy Estate 2011 Red Wine

Napa, CA- "Roy's 2011 Proprietary Red wraps around the palate with sweet dark raspberries, mocha, espresso, plums, spices and menthol. This is a surprisingly round, inviting wine for the year, with no hard edges and open, inviting personality that is hard to resist."

Napa, CA- "Plush, ripe and fine-grained for the vintage, with complex dark berry, licorice and smoky mineral flavors dominating. A very pliant and nicely balanced 2011. The tannins are serious but hit the palate late, allowing the wine to open nicely on the back end."
