2016 Broken Axle "Stagecoach Vineyard"
Napa Valley
Tasting NOTES
The nose is voluptuous with blueberry, blackberry and violet that lead to sweet freesia. The palate is fresh and juicy on the initial attack. Silky tannins lead the mid palate and finish to tobacco, dark cocoa, strawberry, earthy balsamic, pencil shavings and boysenberry. A crowd pleaser, this wine can wow a crowd now and over the next 15 years.
