Cabernet, Not Pinot. Have you guys had this?!? Each time we have it I remember how great it was the last time and brace for my too high expectations, but then I drink it and- yep, still amazing. Don’t buy it all, save some for me please.

Great bottle. Leather, mint, cherry. Long finish. Crazy high alcohol content. Curious if it would have been even better with lower one.

Light nose with hints of ginger. Some tobacco and leather flavors with a satisfying mouth feel.

Lots of fruit but also lots of cedary oak, and the finish shows just a little too much extract for me. Blueberries, blackberries, tobacco, some leather, plus that big extract at the end.
