Maybe it's because it was a gift, but I really dig this bottle. Great finesse for a wine at 15% abv. Balanced and yummy. And a damn nice natural cork from the Cork Supply group protecting the wine...

Lots of oak and extract, but there's no denying the delicious factor

Awesome. Drinking perfectly now from this cooler vintage. Very classic RDD - reminiscent of a Barolo of the same age, lots of spice and tar notes.

Great maker(their crianza is an amazing under 20 bargain), this levels out out into a seamless, dark fruit journey. Impressive.
