The $50 mystery case train rolls on. Best Hundy we ever spent on wine. I paid <$5 for this wine and can’t find it online for less than $52. Committed to not looking these wines up before popping the cork. Merlot dominant, whole cluster in Demi’s that are turned every 4 hours for 6 months in lieu of punch downs or pump overs. Good stuff.

This wine was fucking awesome!!!!!!!! The big brother to the Ch. La Faviere. Cold Mass and directly put in 56 Gallon French oak that sit on wheels and turned 6 times a day taking the place of traditional pump overs and punch downs. Aged for 12 months in new French oak. Massive beast. $75 / 94pts

East bank blend; deep plum, blackberry, and black cherry reduction, with espresso, vanilla oak, and chocolate notes, subtle bay leaf and pepper with hints of graphite/slate; well balanced and smooth.
