These are small and unique blends, typically from single vineyards, single blocks and sub-sections within our estate vineyards that span the length of Napa Valley. Our 'Corley Reserve' bottlings tend to be bold, full-bodied, rich in texture. These wines can age gracefully for up to 40 years.

I find vibrant aromas of black cherries, blackberries, raspberries all laced very nicely by a moderate stroke of vanilla and oak aromas from the barrels. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and displays a strength more typically found in our upvalley vineyards. The fruit is robust and bold, with wonderfully tannins that will age gracefully over years, and softens beautifully after about 30 minutes.
This is a deeply extracted, rich and robust wine. I find this wine bursting with black cherry and blackberry aromas, with hints of cocoa and coffee. On the palate the wine has an immediate presence, as the attack and midpalate are robust. The dark berry aromas follow through with consistency on to the palate. The tannins are big, but round and well-resolved and quickly round out what is a long, lingering finish. This wine will age gracefully for 20+ years.
