Expect dense black currant, blackberry, dark chocolate, espresso, vanilla, and refined oak spice with full body, ripe but structured tannins, and a long finish. Kayli Morgan typically shows slightly more red-fruited and floral character than the Ark Vineyard expression. The 2013 Napa vintage was excellent.
