As Gomer Pyle used to say "Shazam!" Giving it an extra point just due to my surprise.

Deep and dark purplish red. Layered nose with some new French oak influences. Notes of cinnamon, pencil shavings, dark red berries, dark bitter cocoa and cassis. Heavy tannins (7/10) and medium plus to full bodied. Needs a bit of time to beef up and integrate further. Layered palate with bramble berries, black cherries, blackberries, spices and tons of crushed gravel. Long and lingering finish. Drink from 2018 till 2033. (93+)

Lot 1 is new to me, but after getting a Parker πŸ’― for the 2013 vintage it will be on my radar from now on. What makes it a πŸ’― pointer I have no idea? I'm not that educated, but I would buy it again at release price, but not worth the $300.00 its going for nowπŸ™„
Thanks
@Rob Brobst III for the hook up of 3 bottles,

Dark, dense and rich with black fruit and a hint of chocolate. 15.5% alcohol and 100% Cabernet. Nice long finish
