This was my birthday wine from Total Wine. One of the staff recommended it. It tastes like a small batch, old recipe. Smooth, dry, with just a tad of sweet berry finish. Will definitely purchase again! — 4 months ago

Chris Ringland is their Wine Consultant. Chris is landing there this week to blend the new vintage.
I like this bottling for its quality & price point. Although the ABV is rising (15.5%), it really doesn’t show it.
The 21 is well made but needs another 7-8 yrs in bottle to reveal its better self.

Similar to a cab sauv — strong aroma but not too strong on the palette. Not oaky which is great! Dad likes this one a lot. — 5 months ago
Had the 2016 on Derby Day 2025. Dark, rich fruits. Some chocolate with a hint of leather. Vanilla and caramel from the barrel. Very interesting wine. The artwork on the front label is absolutely fascinating. Had to do the back of the bottle to get it in this app. — 2 months ago
