"Napa Valley"

Tried this on the rec from one of the stores I try to Frequent. Medium garnet color with a little bricking on the edges.

Huge creamy vanilla and black licorice boquet! Wow! This is pretty much where it ended though. At first, I really liked the black fruit feel with some sutble peppar which coated my mouth. What I don't undersatnd is that It faded with air. I don't think I have ever experienced this before. @ 15.3% alchohol, I am wondering if this had anything to do with it.

Cheers to GrapeFriends!
