This is an inarguably great wine. And all the more impressive to me that it is stylistically not my typical leanings. Serious power, depth, balance - still so young - and I'll be damned if this wine isn't mindblowing in 10 years. Bravo @Fritz Hatton

Jalapeño, cinnamon, with bright acidity and smooth lingering finish. Perfect with prime rib.

Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!
It's just like home as presented by a character like Andy Griffin. Presses all the buttons and fully exceeds my expectations!

Very nice intentionally Bordeaux-like composition, fragrant, berries, chocolate and leather. Medium to full body.

Very expensive.
