Black nutty staining holy shit concentrated voluptuous heady smelling stuff, fleshy while decadent and reeking of rocks and snow run-off. One of those things you just want to be in the same room with forever in hopes some of their poise and attitude will flake off. Direct and alive, one taste and any inclinations toward obese are dashed. Lean enough to make an East-Coast snob sit up, ripe enough to make a West-Coast prick pay attention. A GORGEOUS wine, I’m not sensing any bullshit red blenders in this thing. No syrah, No Zin–this thing feels all classic BDX: peppery and focused. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS STUFF COSTS?!?!? Everyone should have a case of this. Seriously. You’re welcome. BARGAIN OF THE DECADE.
