2022 I Am the Storm, Red Wine, Napa Valley

Well, well, well...look who's back.

Betcha thought you wouldn't see this sexy devil again. As a part of our 10th Anniversary, we're re-issuing three hits from the past in ultra-limited quantities starting with I Am the Storm.

For the original 2015 bottling, we channeled our inner Hemingway and pecked out this audacious prose on our Corona #3 typewriter. To all of life's challenges and heartbreaks, we must make one thing clear: you fucked with the wrong crew.

Since its release, this empowering message has become iconic within the Tank community. We've spoken with cancer survivors who embraced the ethos during their fights. We've heard of I Am the Storm banners hung for first responders and frontline health care workers. We've seen the words tattooed on people's bodies to help them with everything life throws their way. Never could we have imagined how much this wine would resonate with our members. Which is why we decided to bring it back. Just this once.

Like the original bottling, this 2022 blend is comprised of 48% Petit Verdot, plus Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. Also like its predecessor, it's all from NAPA FUCKING VALLEY, home to some of the world's most amazing Bordeaux fruit. We sourced these grapes from a few small vineyards in St. Helena and the Oak Knoll District.

And let us say, we've got another perfect storm of flavors and textures here. Inky purple in the glass and a medley of dark fruit aromas. We're talking black cherry, blackberry, plum with violet and lavender. On the palate, it's full-bodied, with firm tannins interwoven with plush flavors of red berries, plum, cassis, and tobacco. It upholds the perfect tension of complexity and sexiness, with a long satisfying finish.

Like the OG, this wine is a banger and pairs with everything from braised short ribs, burgers, and lamb, to risotto and Gouda. And if you're patient, you can age this wine 10, 15, maybe 20 years. Which ain't a bad idea considering we won't be doing this re-issue thing again.

This limited-edition re-bottling was specially created for you, our MADE members. We even went to the special lengths of wax dipping it, making it an even more premium and exclusive offering than the original.

Now, we know we said we'd never repeat a wine, but hear us out on this one.  Through some combination of grit, stupidity, and passion, we've managed to survive a decade as a winery. For ten years, we've stared down fires, health crises, economic uncertainties, and cease and desists (you know who the fuck you are) and persevered. How did we do it? By repeating this one reckless, defiant mantra deep in our souls: I AM THE STORM.
