Oh you pretty thing.
This puppy went head to head with the 1981 Tondonia and this one blew her out of the water. Tobacco and acidity that hit you straight in the jaw.

This is fantastic. Ripe but balanced, tannic but that works. I would call this classically styled, Old Napa. Just gorgeous. — 12 years ago
