Generously served blind by @rickym13. I guessed cult Napa around 2010, give or take five years. @pinotlui guessed Maybach, which I thought was pretty fitting. Turns out he was right on the money!

Powerful, rich, lush, and intense, this lusciously-textured, mouth-filling wine is all about its opulent palate textures and lengthy perfectly ripe, dark, black and red fruit, chocolate, licorice, and vanilla-packed finish. Drink from 2022-2040.

Popped this at the Winemasters Charity Wine event for Cystic Fibrosis, and was by far the WOTN for me, and really the WOTY.
This was just amazing, and got to revisit it over a few hours, I wish I could have taken the time to jot down all of the mouth coating goodness, but you will just have to take my word for it.. it was just that good.
So thankful there are two more bottles to get to sample, there is absolutely no hurry on drinking, and not sure as I can with some if i thought this will benefit from further bottle age, but if you want to treat yourself.. Jump on in or let them rest!!!

First growth Bordeaux in a Napa bottling. Crazy but I think this needs more time. It should get close to 100 points within a decade.
