Doid’t realize it was a ‘21 before opening. Like this producer although I’d let this one age 5+ more years — 12 days ago

Haven’t had a CRU for awhile. At Rutherford Grill and a friend ordered this bottle and we didn’t have much and she didn’t want it so I took it home. Wasn’t impressed at the restaurant but the second night at home it really shined! — 2 months ago

Pop and pour. A majestic pale straw color. On the nose: jumping from the glass are pear, honey, hay, honeydew melon. Taste: creamy, rich wine with lemon, apricot, saline, grapefruit, and a medium minerally/green apple finish. YUM! — 7 months ago

Actually Sector Red 8, not Adelaide Hills. DELICIOUS. Light but full flavor. Let aerate, swirl around. Serve chilled. Good on day 2. — 9 months ago

Delicious super rich and creamy loaded with dark chocolate, toffee, coffee, and some raisin. Big fan of these after today wanting to try their unique releases now. — 16 days ago

Developing depth, warmth and class through the years. Medium-bodied, pure and fresh red fruit, spice and herbs, pinch of kirsch. Very good..!
Bottle 2025/6228; 13.0% ABV

PS: can anybody clarify the “meow” on the cork? 🤔🐱 — 3 months ago

Magnum. PnP. Nice with solid fruit and great depth. Nothing that blew me away but wouldn’t turn down a glass.

Finished days later and was better, upgrading to 9.5. — 8 months ago
