aechmea Posted March 14 Posted March 14 An in-house label by the now defunct Cellarmasters. "Special" wines offered by their "tame" winemakers to selected customers. Most were OK to good but I like this one best of all. 1

This particular wine is a great drop, will be stashing the rest for a few more years, I’ve had some great experiences with their Shiraz as well. 1
