  August 2, 2019 - Where do these beauties keep coming from?!?! Last had two killer bottles back in 2016...still more in the cellar! Looks like I picked up a 4 pack on WB in 16 for $25 per. I'll blind ANYONE in a First Growth tasting, and if this doesn't win or place...I'll give you my cellar!! ;-)
  This bottle even better than the last...dark and youthful with perfect integration and polished balance. Full bodied and layered with sweet berry fruits, currants, boysenberry jam...silky tannins, yet still has a firm cedar and tobacco dry spice kick. Plenty youthful acidity...aged complexities of menthol, leather, dried tobacco leaves, cigar box, licorice, damp cellar...wonderful florals of crushed violets, cherry blossoms and earth spice. SO classic SO plush...aged to perfection...a fine Bordeaux kissed with Ca sunshine! In awe of this wine.
