specially selected lots account for this top-of-the-line bottling. it's really very good. the fruit tends toward raspberries and cherries, and it's smooth as silk in the mouth. the nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon and peppery notes last for a long time on the finish. the difference between this and the typical carneros bottling is intensity; the fruit is more focused. it's the difference, say, between a flashlight and a laser.
