2016 BUONCRISTIANI O.P.C. NAPA VALLEY BLEND "This is strong on blueberry and plum aromas with an earthy edge and violet-like florals. The palate has a strong core of ripe plus fruit in very assertive, boisterous style. A blend of 44 per cent cabernet sauvignon, 28 per cent malbec, 24 per cent syrah and four per cent merlot. Drink or hold." 92 Points "... It has some detracting ethyl acetate but packs terrific cassis, cherry and blueberry fruits, hints of spring flowers, lead pencil, and graphite, medium to full body, and a mouthfilling, sexy, pure texture. Drink it any time over the coming decade." 92 Points "... Creamy, voluptuous and super-inviting, the O.P.C. will drink well with minimal cellaring. The blend varieties work nicely to soften some of the tannic clout of the Cabernet, which in turn allows the lush fruit - always a signature of these super-expressive, generous wines - to shine through." 92 Points
