First time having this one, its a very nice bottle.
Stats, $225.00 release, $75.00 on K&L sale makes it even better!

And finally, there’s The Vow, which in this observer’s opinion is the marquee offering of the ’14 Gravel Series. Sourced from a narrow strip of rocky soil that runs through the South East corner of Round Pond’s Rutherford vineyard, T

This was a wonderfully complex flavorful Cab. This was the only Roundpond offering we liked. Need to stick to the granite series.

The Gravel Series continues to knock my freakin' socks off. Black cherry, wet stone, and a ton of earth on the nose gets you immediately encapsulated. Layers of complexity on the palate that I can only start to explain. Raspberry, mushroom, cassis (again), dark chocolate and a wonderful minerality. Drinking wonderfully already, but this sucker has 10+ years in it.

This is Round Pound Estate's first vintage of their new gravel series wines. Small production from tiny parcels of their vineyards. This one is called the Vow and its cab sav from a tiny row of vines from their estate in Rutherford. It is a beautiful showing of quintessential Rutherford fruit. With a nose of Caramel, strawberries, and a hint of burnt cedar, this wine explodes on the palate with sugar plums, sweet tannin and that signature Rutherford dust and mocha. Really well done and anyone who likes round pond needs to spoil themselves with this.

2015 barrel sample. Rich and viscous, maple syrup, crushed blackberries, a nice mineral core.
