Mission Codename Beautiful Beast
Prepare yourself (and your decanter!) for today’s beautiful beast of a wine. Today’s Atlas Peak Wines 2006 Atlas Peak Claret is a robust, inky blend that forced our entire tasting panel to stop, linger, and say wow.
Rich in color, aroma, and flavor, today’s wine is power packed with juicy dark fruit, espresso bean, and sweet tobacco leaf. While it certainly is a powerful wine, it never loses sight of its elegant Napa Valley heart.
Please accept our heartiest recommendation for today’s gem. Remember to give it a chance to breathe and you’ll be rewarded handsomely.
