I liked this a lot better than the Ditch Worshipper. Spice, minerals, bacon fat, dark fruits, violets and underbrush. Long finish. Excellent wine.

My wine of the night at the Sleight of Hand/ Denner & Dama Wine Dinner. Black olives, funk, smoked meats, stones, dark fruits and gravel. LONG finish and super concentrated. Highly recommend this wine.

Spiders from Mars was clearly wine of the night. $150 what a value! Napa this would be $400.
