This "son-of-a-bitch to grow" according to owner Jeff Aubry, turns into one of their most popular varietal wines - each and every year. If customers flock to the regular edition then they should come running for this rare vintage version. The nose is incredibly peppery with both black and white pepper and cassis being the only fruit note present. The palate is very old world with smoked meat taking charge, followed by raspberry and white pepper. There is a hint of VA (volatile acidity) on the nose, which does not translate onto the palate.
