Not yet released but a worthy wait for sure. No winemaker bias.

Chocolate mocha nose. Cinnamon and grilled meat on the palette. Long finish with cherry tobacco. Amazing tannins.

2005 Vintage - Fruity oaky monster! A beautiful tribute to Tom's father. Hints of blackberry/currant, coffee, and pipe tobacco. Delicious!

I wish it wasn't sold out. Smooth and well balanced. Maybe a bit overpriced at $125.
