Dedicated to the memory of a family founder, Vernon Rhodes, this one-time release is packed with barrel flavors of chocolate, espresso and smoke. The fruit holds its own, dense cassis and black cherry, dappled with pepper and fresh herbs. Tight and balanced, this needs decanting and can certainly be cellared for a decade or longer.
