Whaaaat! Limited run duckhorn firewater opened by our friends for dinner. Beautiful wine, crazy smooth and finishes beautifully like it evaporates off the tongue. I only wish I was a little more sober when it was opened.

Great red blend. Smooth on the front with light oak on the back of the tongue.

Light on texture and mouthfeel, big on flavor. Stone, dark fruit, a little oak.

Fantastic selection from a lovely producer. Blackberries, plums, cedar, mint, dark chocolate, and espresso. A fine wine. If you are ever on 30A do yourself a favor and stop in to visit Chris at Wild Olives in Rosemary Beach. One of the absolute best wine selections, hands down. And to avoid egregious markups he sells them in his “bistro market” that’s adjoined to his restaurant with minimal markup and lets his guests grab their own bottle(s) off of the shelf, take it to their tables, and boom...welcome to a fine evening.

Really smooth. Not as heavy a wine as I usually enjoy but the finish is really nice. Should buy again.
