2004 Cloud 9 Composition


This wine was flat and uninspiring. The fruit was bland, the acid and tannins were both strong. I doubt it will ever come around as a bottle and could not recommend it over many $5 bottles that I have had. It comes in at over $30 so it is very disappointing.
It has a very stylish label.
It comes from a winery up in the foothills around Murphy's, an area that I have always liked but never really believed produced superb wine. The grapes are Napa, so the pedigree seems like it has a chance. Unfortunately, no luck.
