This single-vineyard bottling is not for the faint-of-heart.Highly extracted from old vines from the original estate this hummer kicks some serious nerve endings.Big entry, Big middle, and a Long 4-1/2 lapper finish. Still in its' infancy you get a look at the future before the massive tannins kick in. I'll revisit in another 5-7. Kick-Fanny juice. 92/88 45 by the box. WW

None but it has to be a killer bottle. This lil' magilla rates rite there with the Grange IMHO.WW
