Get the new release while it's available! 94 Points Wine Spectator: "Combines power with finesse, offering a rich core of dark berry, mocha, chocolate, dusty oak and loamy earth. Gains depth and refinement on the finish, where the flavors linger pleasantly. Drink now through 2030."

Beautifully developing wine. Still slightly acidic and firm tannins. Fruit and oak well integrated but needs a few more years to reach perfection.

Rich, syrupy goodness that's drinking noticeably younger than the 2011.

Enjoyed this wine after tearing my ACL skiing on Blackcomb Mountain in Whistler. Beautiful wine. Complex. Hints of vanilla, dark cherries and blackberries.
