The guys at my local pushers asked me to bring this in for their holiday wine and to wash the raste of the "Cest arrive" they have piled up to the ceiling. Dead at the top of its' game this cooker 'kaint get no better. Leather (horsehide?)(cowhide?)(suede?)...... Oh Well going forward, brite red fruit, forest floor, spice, and vanilla all wrapped up in a silk bow. One of Toms' gems that has been enjoyable from day one. A great time was had by one and all. WW

Sounds like one I'd like, and Bucko wouldn't.

The last wine that I bought from them was the 1994 Reserve Pinot. It was big, it was bold, it was fat.......it was fun. But the oak became a little too much after that.
