St Supéry Élu Napa Valley Red Blend 2016

93 points James Suckling: “A very polished and integrated wine here with a coal-smoke edge to the ripe-plum and black-cherry aromas. The palate has a super plush, seamlessly polished and bright, red-plum core with a very fresh and expansive finish. A blend of 70 per cent cabernet sauvignon and 22 per cent merlot with touches of malbec, cabernet franc and petit verdot. Drink or hold. (11/19/18)”

90 points Wine Spectator: “Juicy bramble and red and black currant flavors mix in this forward offering, with good fruitcake and spice notes filling in on the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2025. (10/31/20)”
