My first experience with RSV and it lived up to everything I expected. The aromas that came off the glass made me not want to take a sip of it (in a good way). The palate was very youthful and full of dark fruits and exotic spices. The long and silky finish showed to have plenty of muscle for the long haul. The epitome of burgundy and pinot noir. Next bottle will be consumed in 5+ years.

- Crimsom color with medium forming legs and aromas of licorice anise and cedar. It's in total harmony and has flavours of blackberry with a medium/full body. Oily texture with a long finish - A wine that has structure like no other napa wine in the market. Great dark fruits that provide grip on the palate and provided power to control my dry aged prime rib eye. Fantastic!

- Yellow color and aromas of butterscotch. It's balanced and has flavours of almond with a medium/full body with a medium finish - Incredible Champagne enjoyed in large glass over a long period of time. Only wish I had more!
