2009 Trespass Rendezvous
St. Helena, Napa Valley
The nose of the 2009 Trespass Rendezvous is a complex blend of higher barrel tones with cherry candle, black pepper, earth, pie dough and vanillin. At first, the nose is wound tight, but unravels very nicely in only a few moments’ time. The palate follows suit with an abundance of fresh, bright flavors exaggerated by a chorus of youthful tannins. Racy black cherry is the forefront to a large middle mouth feel. Bringing up the rear of this wine and through on into the finish is a mélange of incredibly deep, black fruit flavors. The wine has great cellar potential to go beyond what it is today. — Kirk Venge
