8 Years in the Dessert Orin Swift. De wijn waar het allemaal mee begon. Voordat Orin Swift zelf ging produceren, verbouwden zij enkel druiven voor andere winery’s. Na dit jarenlang te hebben gedaan kwam het besef dat men dit zelf ook kon doen. Op dat moment verbouwde Orin Swift alleen de Zinfandel druif. Deze druif is echter moeilijk te reguleren per vintage. Om ervoor te zorgen dat ze toch een constante kwaliteit konden bieden werden ook de Petit Sirah en de Syrah aangeplant. Door deze 2 druiven toe te voegen aan de blend werd er een zeer constante wijn geboren. Dit is een "limited" edition wijn. De wijn wordt slechts 8 jaar gemaakt, en dan komt er een nieuw project. 

8 maanden houtlagering voor 8 Years in the Desert

Het wijnavontuur voor wijnmaker Dave Phinney begon in 1998 toen hij voor zichzelf begon en zijn eigen wijnhuis Orin Swift oprichtte. Hij heeft een lange weg afgelegd waarin hij begon met 2 ton gekochte Zinfandel druiven. Na grote succes met wijnen als Papillon, The Prisoner en Abstract, keerde Dave terug naar waar het allemaal begon. Zijn eerste liefde Zinfandel. En dat resulteerde in de 8 Years in the Desert. Het is een gedurfde rode wijn mix waar verschillende druifsoorten elkaar ontmoeten. De wijn rijpt 8 maanden in eikenhouten vaten waarna de hele wereld er van mag genieten.

Hoe smaakt de 8 Years in the Desert?

Bij het openen van deze wijn was het ook een soort van tocht door de woestijn. De aangename warme en stoffige neus doet je bijna vermoeden dat je in de woestijn bent. Snakkend naar een heerlijk glas wijn. Aantrekkelijk aan deze geur zijn de mooie aroma’s van bramen, zwarte vijgen en wat hinten van pure chocolade. De smaak doet je bijkomen na die lange tocht door het zand. Heerlijke verzachten tonen van zwarte bessen, pruimen, chocolade en leer. De tannines zijn aanwezig maar op een beleefde wijze. De afdronk is fenomenaal lang, alsof je je in een oase midden in de Desert waant.

Orange looking, but large capacity
Size: One Size, Color: Brown
I ended up returning this product, it looks more orange in color than what is pictured. Also, it doesn't smell like leather. On a positive note, it was inexpensive and did have a large organization capacity.

Best wallet on the market.
Size: One Size, Color: Nubuck Black, Size: One Size, Color: Nubuck Black
This is the only wallet I buy now. Over and over. I like simple wallets. No bifold. Trifolds hurt your back. Hard case are a mess that rub your credit card mag strips off from friction. I found this a few years back and have bought 3. I am a stone worker so mine get worn from the dust and grit in my pockets faster than normal wear and I need to swap them out every couple of years. I like the simplicity and the fact that the pockets are stitched the same depth so your cards stack like varying length stair-style tabs rather than all the same depth. Wallet is RDIF protection lined. I can put like 15 cards in this wallet and it’s still thinner than a bifold holding 5. I love it. I mean it. I haven’t found a better wallet than this one. They are very well-built. Picture shows wallet with 19 cards + 40 dollars. 3/4 of an inch thick.

Good Product

Good product although the leather is a bit stiff. Hopefully it will soften up over time. Fair price, fast shipping…

So far happy.
Size: One Size, Color: Glossy Nappa Black
As everyone has made clear, it holds credit cards very tight. Almost 3 weeks in & mine seems to be breaking in a little, but cards are still a bit difficult to remove. No complaints with money clip. One thing I thought was a dumb move on manufacturers part, was inside one of the card slots is a tag sewn into the seem. This makes things alot worse while trying to fit cards into all slots. The tag will catch on the cards & bunch up in the corner of the slot making things even tighter in that slot, plus all slots surrounding it. I was able to get a scissors in there enough to cut most of the tag out, without cutting the stitching itself....it made a big difference....enough to fit an extra card in & without it bulging up the wallet overall. Why would they feel it necessary to do this is beyond my pay grade. Its not like you can even see what the tag says until you cut it out.... I believe it was the name & logo....but Jesus, how unnecessary, & in the dumbest place one could possibly think of. Especially when EVERYONE comments on how excessively tight it is to fit cards in the slots & also be able to retrieve them with relative ease when needed. Overall I am happy with this wallet so far.... I'll be interested to see if it holds together over the long haul or if the stitching gives out in a year & has to be replaced. I will update this review as time progresses. UPDATE: Its almost to March 27 2023 & its been holding up great. No ripping or tearing stitching holding strong. Still holds cards really tight, but they are easier to remove.
