2018 Abreu, Madrona Ranch, Napa Valley 1x750ml

Vinous 98

The 2018 Madrona Ranch is stunning in its beauty. The aromatics alone are mesmerizing, as is the wine’s transparency. Dried flowers, licorice, lavender and leather lend striking fragrant dimension. More than anything else, the 2018 impresses for its textural finesse and overall elegance, qualities that were rarely found in the Madrona Ranch a few years ago, when the wines were much more extracted and tannic.
