John Duval, former winemaker of the Penfolds Grange, is in charge of this esteemed winemaking project. This new release follows up the highly impressive 2012 Sequel. The wine has a lovely dark and dense core. There are perfumed aromas of black pepper, smoked pork shoulder, blackberry preserves and oak. This leads to flavors of blackberry, anise, smoked meats, black olive and black cherry. This velvety wine has a beautiful texture and minerality with fantastic richness and viscosity. This effort is up there with the best in the state. (Best 2015-2028) - October, 2015 (OB)
