Nicknamed after the hail storm that ravaged the vineyard in 2001. This Cabernet Sauvignon blend is from block one the oldest vineyard and the source of their most prized wine. Dark cherry liqueur like fruit with notes of toasty oak spice sweet tobacco spice and milk chocolate. Big and chewy on the tongue with ripe round tannins and a nice hand of fresh earth and dry tannins at the end but lots of everything fine herbs. Finish 45 excellent+
