Just because you can afford 100% new French oak for 18 months doesn't mean you should.

2016 Clone 13 - not quite ready yet, oak still a little too prominent on the nose. High toned crunchy red fruit on the palate, bright acidity.

2014 Clone 13 - This one is ready, probably still on the upswing for 3-5 more years. Pronounced acidity, starting to feel Burgundian.

2015 Clone 13 - Oak on the nose, starting to integrate. Drought year fruit, slightly more lush on the palate.
