This 19-year-old annual release to coincide with the U.S. Open golf tournament is finished in Cabernet Franc wine casks, and the nose has touches of plums, raisins, red grapes, and dried flowers. The taste has fresh berries, plums, white pepper, red grapes, and raisins. The finish is long and fruity. Very nice! (May, 2026)
