...pure Napa Valley red blend, [Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petite Sirah] from select small blocks of low yield, luscious high intensity/complexity fruit of small family farms. | Jayson Woodbridge for Fortunate SonThe Merlot-dominated 2019 The Diplomat comes from a handful of sites and would give a great Pomerol a run for its money with its darker red and black fruits, smoky herbs, and earthy goodness on the nose. These carry to a full-bodied, rounded, opulent 2019 with sweet, building tannins and a great finish. Give it a few years. | 94 points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.com
