Total Wine Store Pick (Gilbert AZ) 8yr, Rickhouse G, Floor 7 (This review mostly for my own notes and probably useless to those outside the AZ area and will focus on the difference between this store pick and the standard) I actually bought this thinking it was a restock of a recent-ish 9 yr pick, and didn’t realize it was a different pick until I got it home. (Oops) Main difference here is less caramel and more fruit forward; specifically baked apple skin. Surprisingly large oak presence on the back end for the age but not as astringent with it as the regular offering. Not many other differences, possibly due to the relatively low age for a EC pick. All in all a very small improvement with this pick which makes it a decidedly ho-hum affair but on the other hand, TW didn’t do the standard up charge for it so there’s that.
