Crafted by Owner/Winemaker Jenny Wagner, Emmolo named for Jenny’s maternal relatives, who came to Napa from Sicily in 1923. Vey Pale lemon color with aromas of fresh fruit, blossom and wet stone. On the palate flavors of peach, melon and lime citrus zest with some herb floral spice. Well balanced, vivid acidity, medium+ finish ending with mineral character. Nice value! — 4 years ago

Not to be harsh, but this was the underperformer of the blind tasting. As said in my previous notes, I reckon I would have gravitated towards this wine if it wasn't done blind. It wasn't a bad wine - I just expected a little bit more.
Nose was very closed. Just smoky and wild. Could have guessed this correctly if producer was an option I felt, since it had the deepest cut of the lot (pretty typical of Daniel's wines). To me the palate was a little less ripe - mix of citrus and stonefruits, sappy, laser precision. Good driven finish, but felt a little less complex than the rest at the moment. I liked this wine for its energy (the most of the lot), but it could have given more. Overall, the wines in this bracket were all showing very well - all wines I would buy for my cellar if I had more space. — 6 years ago

May be the best Malbec I’ve ever had. Smooth blackberry jam with ripe dark fruit, less bite than typical Malbecs. Would buy again. — 4 years ago
