2012-2014Royal punishers flight along with the rest of the 2016 turley rattlesnake petite. The 2012 is the outlier with much higher alcohol and weight. The 2013 was my favorite.

Excellent wine! Bouquet is floral notes of wisteria and spice. Dark fruits , with some tobacco and anise.

Really dark purple color. Aromas of dark fruit. Blackberry and licorice with a spicy finish. Really do like this wine and should be good for a lot of years to come.

Another killer one from Biale. The most purple wine you can imagine. More austere than their zin, but super approachable. Black fruit, tobacco, and cedar. Paired great with rack of lamb.

Big and intense! Tasted in a wine class. Lots of fruit, bit of spice. I got a little maple and coffee too.
