There’s an absolute elegance to this beast from Paso. WA gave it 96pts and I’m right there too. The ‘17 was not nearly as nice as this. Big mashed berries nose, with silky tannins and rich Cherry. A little smoked tobacco rounds out a wonderful experience.

Huge fan of this booker classic. Black cherry and currant with a hint of smoked meat. Macerated goodness from Paso. Long finish.
