Only the 5th vintage of Scarecrow's 2nd label, this tin man will have you longing for wine instead of a heart, and with only 1,000 cases produced, it can't be beat! Made by cult Cab queen Celia Welch and aged in 85% new French oak barrels for 16 months, the wine is bottled without fining or filtration. Some may rather oil, but we'd prefer to lubricate with this libation. ¡Mi corazon!
