Man, I don't see how this stuff sells. I'm even more surprised it gets decent professional reviews. I just opened a bottle. 10 minutes into it, all it get an OVERWHELMING cacophony of tastes.
Ever listened to an orchestra warm-up before a performance? As they come into tune, they transition from discord into this glorious harmony. Raw Power never leaves warm-up Yeah, I get it...Raw power. But it could have just as easily be called Jet Fuel.
I might come back to this review after an hour or two. Hopefully I'll have better things to say.

Just too much! Way over the top. Maybe this mellows with age, but I'm not sure I'll live that long!
