Mt Brave 2018 MT. Veeder – Napa Valley

The nose is elegant, precise, mellow, deep, fresh and complex all at once. It reveals notes of blackberry, violet and small notes of small wild berries, associated with touches of crushed raspberry, as well as discreet hints of fresh tobacco and a subtle hint of cypress. The palate is well-built, supple, fresh, elegant and gourmand and offers a fresh/tangy frame and gourmandise. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of black cherry, dense raspberry and small notes of black plum, associated with fine hints of plum blossom, as well as discreet hints of tonka bean, a hint of fresh rosemary/sage and discreet hints of undergrowth and tobacco. Good length. Nice little mellowness and sapidity. Freshness and acidity. Tannins are supple, clean and precise and offers a concentration in its fruit. A wine slightly eucalyptus and sappy.
