Top Notes For
Paul T HB

Copy & paste will not format so excuse the incompetence 👌🏼First time having this one, smells better on day 1 by a smidge tastes better on day 2 . Winery notes 35% Fiddlestix, 35% Radian, 12% Bentrock, 12% Sanford & Benedict, & 6% Rancho La Vina. The blend comes from lots that were 89% destemmed and 11% whole cluster. The wine was aged on its lees for 19 months in French oak barrels (50% new) and bottled unfined & unfiltered. We think it is remarkably expressive for such a dramatically scaled, well structured wine, and its silky texture and impeccable balance will yield a tremendous aging curve. Drink 2026-2038+.
