Very nice but not quite as full bodied as I would typically look for.

Paraduxx 2012 Napa Valley red wine.

Sure does smell and taste like one too.

Just a slight hint of sweet bell pepper dominated by red cherries, red raspberries, red currants and red plums, all backed by oak notes and red flowers.

The palate is all Napa too: that vanilla accented red fruit that leads to chewy tannin and a hot finish. I hate ragging on my state's wines, but this has no discernable traits of its own.

Blackberry, cassis, eucalyptus, licorice, mocha, mossy earth and oak. Great structure and quite tannic.
