Pym-Rae Tesseron Estate Red Wine Mount Veeder Napa 2018

The blend of the 2018 comes in at 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30 Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. A riper expression of the estate shows with plums, cassis, and blackberries, while the developing house style shows it Bordelais roots.  Pencils shavings, sweet cigar, black cherry and leather.  The wine is framed by a big structure that unravels slowly. The manner in which the tannins build is like a full on symbols-crashing symphony.
