Lovely savory fruit. Sale leather and iron inflected red fruit. Some spice and lovely rounded, balanced, resolved fruit. Long and pure and excellent. Great stuff

Happy 60th birthday, William Martin! Lovely. Didn’t just hold up, it thrived and is still full of life. Delicious.

So much life here, energy and freshness to spare. Lovely mature fruits, woodsy complexity over a velour texture.

Amber red. Nose of pencil lead, graphite stone, wood box, red fruit. Round in mouth. Light mid palate with some smoke and dried fruit. After some air this added more weight and gained complexity. Very refined. Paired well with my lamb chops.

Wow. So thankful Hough opened this wine. Tasted fresh, like a 20 year wine. Real Benchmark wine.
