The girth and weight of this bad boy is ... Remarkable, jarring, and exceptional. I'll be talking about him for a long, long time. I mean it when I say he is one of the top two I've had in recent memory. Can't wait to get back in the sheets for a tumble with this one as soon as possible.

Ennis Parker

One of those slow build wines, starts delicious, then grows from there, and by the end you understand why they chose to put this delicious nectar in such a weighty bottle... Perfect wine when your dinner consists of wine, cheese and crackers.

Kimberly Anderson

Can't believe this is a 2013! Tobacco on the nose. Lots of blackberry mid palate. Heavy licorice finish. Very smooth.

Isaac Pirolo

A lipsmacking black raspberry mocha milkshake. Always a favorite.

Rebecca Fletcher

Red and black fruit. Baking spices and vanilla. M acid and finish. M+ chalky tannin. Black cherry and berries. Very well balanced.

Natrone Means Business

A cab with powerful notes of currant. I was hoping for a little more complexity, but this can won't shy away from delivering almost everything you want.

Isaac Pirolo

Dark chocolate, tobacco, licorice, Worcestershire, leather, and a hint of Rutherford dust.

Shawn Paul

A Clydesdale of a Cab.
