From the winery:
We continue to produce a wine that is powerful and ageworthy, yet supple enough to be enjoyed upon release. More so than ever, Affinity provides savvy Craig lovers with a Napa Valley icon at a tremendous price point. The mineral, graphite and black thorny-vine fruits are all on full display in this mountain sourced wine. The tiny clusters that proliferated in 2023 at high elevations in the Napa Valley provide strength and structure in this deeply colored Bordeaux blend. The long, cool vintage was ideal for power and backbone. A more judicious use of new French Oak helps the dark fruit to pour from the glass and extend on the palate
