TASTING NOTE: Not quite as ripe as the 2014 but just as delicious, this biodynamically-farmed estate wine is Rex Hill's top reserve. Its old vine complexity shows in its substantial, full-bodied berry, plum and cherry flavors, a beet root note running down the center. At this time, the barrel aging flavors are a bit hidden, but experience suggests it will continue to improve over the next decade or longer. Cellar Selection.
