Metro Sales Rep for David Bowler Wines of NYC
Still killing it 19 years later. Only 12.8% alcohol with nice fruit hanging on and nice silky tannin structure. — 8 years ago
Coming from the richer soils around 1300ft near the bottom of monte bello. Beautiful for single varietal bottlings from these two plots. Big and powerful with old world structure from Santa Cruz mountains. — 8 years ago
Great fruit and nuance. I agree with Bradley that Gabilan area can be amazing for Grenache. — 8 years ago
Left bank style with some serious sagebrush and rosemary notes. Real powerhouse with new world concentration and old world nuance. Love this wine. — 8 years ago
From Magnum. Amazing. Still a baby and can go another 20

Very concentrated with nicely integrated oak. Very stable and lively for 12 years. — 8 years ago
Quite a wine. Highest tannin levels in the history of monte bello but still held in check by the concentration. Needs time but going to be killer — 8 years ago
Super elegant and concentrated particularly when you consider the American oak used to barrel ferment. — 8 years ago
