Drinking Remarkably well, for a 2016 cdr. No indication but would presume its 100% Grenache. Good fruit well balanced remarkably drinkable for a 2016. — 6 years ago

17/20 (92/100) Развитой, элегантный букет ароматов лайковой кожи, старого варенья из чёрной смородины, сушеной черники, графита, шоколада и морёной древесины. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и довольно интенсивными, гладкими танинами. Гораздо более ягодное во вкусе, чем в аромате. Продолжительное послевкусие. Великолепно! #dfwe2018 — 7 years ago

This was my contribution to the 100 point Collectors dinner. Probably the softest and most balanced of the bunch. A love the Bordeaux style bottle - an abundance of earthy and fruit notes - I'd like another please! — 9 years ago

So savory. Racy. Tangerine zest. Less oaky than the 2012. My second favorite 100 % Meunier after Les Barres from Chartogne-Taillet. — 9 years ago

Great stuff. 2012 vintage. Violets, lilacs, some savory notes of grilled meat. Really good acidity keeps this bright and balances the weight of the dark fruit. Tannins give it good finish — 7 years ago

I completely forgot to post this. My brother from another mother Kirk Alexander uncorked these 2 Absolutely Phenomenal 100 point beauties for us to enjoy just because I came over!!!!!! ! Damn., I’ve got to go to his house more often!!!!!! All kidding aside., we were celebrating Veronica’s (his beautiful wife) birthday and what a truly special Evening.it was. There’s nothing better than uncorking a special bottle with friends that have become like family.
We love you Veronica!!! And put up with Kirk just because of you🤣😜🤣

Super-weird bottle. Mid-shoulder, crumbly cork, and the colour of freshly pressed strawberry juice - extremely pale as slightly cloudy! The immediate scent was quite off-putting but after 30 minutes it stormed back! Scents of autumn mulch, burning vine roots, sour cherries, and raspberry compote. A weird sourness and heady acidity on the front of the palette but it still keeps together well. Clearly badly kept but still really interesting to drink! A true testament to The quality of Mouton under the stewardship of the late Baron. I wonder if this is what some of the better kept bottles might be like in 100 years' time!? — 10 years ago

This is as good as Bordeaux gets. Pure perfection in a glass and got even better with an hour+ in the decanter. Wonderful earthy notes, Forrest floor, leather, spice, faint menthol and bell pepper, floral, cigar and some dark fruits finished with the kiss of God and a drop of angel tears. One of the few wines I've ever had that I would rate 100 and an epic experience. — 10 years ago

17.5/20 (94/100)

Сладко-цветочный, яркий, молодой. Ягодный леденец, малина, спелая клубника, смородина, яркий ягодный аромат, немного шоколада, какао, болгарский перец на гриле. Ярко, взрывно но не тяжело и очень свежее. Большой потенциал.

Had this wine May 17 - 20, 2019. Cloudy garnet red. Medium bodied. Extra dry. Cherry, strawberry, wild pansies and a hint of black pepper. It has a distinct element to it that I have noticed with other Ontario reds that I have not quite been able to put my finger on yet. It was also a little acidic on the finish. I did not, however, notice the earthiness that all the reviews that I have read mentioned. I can understand why this wine received great reviews and was noted as a bench mark for Pinot Noir in Ontario. $34.95 LCBO — 7 years ago

9.1

Deep purple in color with a short purple rim.

Nice fruity nose with black currants, cherries, blackberries, wood, vanilla, smoke, spices, chocolates, peppercorn, cola, licorice, light vegetables and mild coffee.

Full bodied and bold, with medium plus acidity and long long legs.

Dry on the palate and very fruity, with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, vanilla, licorice, cloves, spices, light vegetables, cedar, leather, chocolates, tobacco and peppercorn.

Long finish with soft tannins and tangy cranberries.

This is a wonderful Granacha from Spain. Well balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food, like BBQ Meats.

Drinking nicely now, without too many green notes, as I expected. Light on the tannins, but the high alcohol provides it with nice structure. Spicy with a nice mouthfeel. Shows nice complexity with enough acidity that makes it interesting.

A good sipping wine, but needs 2 hours to open up properly. Not as good right out of the bottle, so please be patient.

100% Granacha grapes.

15.5% alcohol by volume. — 9 years ago

2010 vintage. From Jay. Bartolo Mascarello - Brief Note from Galloni Historical Retrospective Held in London April 26, 2016. Somewhat closed on the nose but nonetheless expressing black fruits, a little menthol and cracked black pepper. Somewhat reductive. Good attack. Lots of fruit and quite lush across the palette. Elegant well structured tannins with great balance. One of the best wines of the night. 94/100. Drink 2022 to 2045. — 10 years ago
