2014 Broken Axle "Stagecoach Vineyard"
Napa Valley
Tasting Notes
Dark, almost opaque, purple in color. The nose matches the intensity of the color with wild blueberries and allspice. Plush texture in the palate, with an opulent and silky finish. Fresh acidity braces the frame of the wine and begs to be paired with cured meats. The optimum drinking window for the 2014 vintage is 7-12 years.
