30+ minute decant and could use more. Darkest wine I have ever had color wise. Pretty close to oil, in both color and texture :). Not much with regards to nose other than massive dark cherry. Jammy wine that really coats the palate and the stomach. Wish it had more contrast, as it’s pretty one dimensional, power and dark cherry. You can’t taste the 15.5 OH, but you definitely feel it. This is not a wine to have alone, so drink with friends or else you’ll feel it. 2-3 glasses was all I could stomach because of its magnitude. This wine is the apex of power and robustness. It could probably last for a century, no kidding! Just not my style unfortunately.

Monday night Football, My last one,
Big for an 04 needs a decant still to blow off some alcohol.

A good wine with hints of earth, leather, berries, and bubble gum. Enjoyable, but nothing that I would run back to the “store” for.

Look at the color difference between the Tor CF & the dark Two hands.

Needs a bit of time to blow off the funk & alcohol, but all good from there.
Parker 98, not sure how it would age 30 years as stated in his review with such high alcohol though,

That's what Cab Sav is supposed to taste like. Fruits will ease with age.
