tasting note: "An exceptional blend of the famous Fay Estate and S.L.V.
Estate, this wine dates back to the 1970s and is spectacular in this vintage.
Juicy, bright and effusive, it offers a lightness of spice, well-integrated oak
and a cohesive, silky texture. Structured, it shows dark-berry fruit, a hint of
crushed rock and fig, expansive and joyful on the palate. This should age
beautifully; enjoy best from 2028 through 2038. Virginie Boone" - 98/100, Wine

"Ripe and direct, with a core of plum and cherry compote that's carried by a glossy structure through the licorice-accented finish. For near-term drinking. Drink now through 2027. 3,200 cases made."
