I loved these when they first came out, but they have gone the way of many of the overripe Napa cults and Aussie Shiraz. For a hundred bucks you get an 87 lb. bottle, 16.2% alcohol, and a spiky acidic ashtray.

AMAZING, once this opened up (about an hour) it was great, i'd call it 95. Smooth, rich fruit, and more flavors coming through than I can even describe, 45 second finish, one of the best bottles of my 500 bottle collection I've had in a while. The only thing that keeps me from actually rating this a point or two higher is the nose does not match the incredible taste.

Jammy, dark fruit, and somewhat earthy. Needs some time to open up. Still very good. Drink soon, though.
