Taken Red 2019

This is a fruitier expression of Napa with red and black cherries, dried strawberries, currants, red peppers and olives. Some sweet spices, too. A juicy, medium- to full-bodied palate, full of dusty cocoa powder and berry fruit. Drinkable now, but can hold for a few years, too. Score – 91. (jamessuckling.com, Aug. 8, 2022)
