Product Description
WS95 "Ripe and juicy, with streaks of sage and bay leaf scoring the cassis and plum fruit, imparting tension, while alder and warm earth aspects develop on the finish. Delivers weight and depth, but relies more on cut and drive in the end. Best from 2022 through 2036. 1,150 cases made." JM for WS Nov 2020
JS95 "This is tight and linear with beautiful ripeness of fruit and freshness. Medium to full body. Compressed palate. Extremely long and flavorful. So drinkable now. Hard not to crack open now, but will improve nicely in the bottle." JS Feb 2020
