The PumpJack 2016s are every bit as captivating from bottle as they were from barrel. Winemaker Aaron Miller coaxes every bit of potential out of the estate as well as the vineyards he buys fruit from. Short, hot fermentations bring out bold, racy fruit in this voluptuous, inviting Napa Valley wines.

Aaron Miller turned in an exceptional performance in both 2015 and 2016. These are perhaps the most compelling, arrestingly beautiful wines I have tasted at Plumpjack under Miller's tenure. Readers who can find these wines won't want to hesitate, as they are magnificent. As always, the Plumpjack wines express radiance and voluptuousness without being over the top. The Merlot and Syrah make use of purchased fruit, while the two Cabernets are reference-points for this sector of Oakville.
