Sipping Fine Wine

Wow, a Fav! Had another bottle about 7 mos ago. Blend of Petite Sirah, Syrah & Grenache and aged for 10 months on French oak (40% new). A deep red color with aromas of black fruits and sweet spice. On the palate, ripe plums, jammy blueberries and sweet cherry with slight oak and vanilla spice, pours like syrup. Lingering finish, good length allowing the soft tannins to open in your mouth. Good structure, ending with pure fruit and dash of minerality, drinks well now. Produced with 12 different labels. Wow! — 7 years ago

Super funky and cool orange wine from Austria. Full and rich with bright acidity. 6 months on the skins gives it a beautiful amber color but it retains its freshness well with only a slight notion of oxidation. — 10 years ago

My first Japanese whiskey bottle courtesy of the Maki clan. Outrageously good stuff. Can't wait for my next Japanese bottle! Really elegant, balanced, complex stuff — 12 years ago

De li Ci o Us !! ... Great Tempranillo. Beautifully balanced. Low acidity and gentle tannin. Ripe strawberry, plums, prunes, leathers, licorice, tobacco... I would give this wine a higher rating if the “after taste” was somehow more interesting... Still, this is an Amazing Tempranillo wine that wouldn’t leave anyone indifferent. — 8 years ago

2013 out of a MAGNUM that is very Rare. The 13 has more structure and body. Fruit and tannin levels also are much bigger, overall I believe this 2013 will outlive the 12's. CB 96 — 10 years ago

Деликатный аромат вяленых яблок и айвы, сливовое варенье, морские оттенки, карамель, нотки дыма, ваниль. Живая кислотность, орехово-карамельное послевкусие.

Let it breath! After that this wine is light to begin with and finishes with a very tasty woodsy, oaky berry touch. Smells like crayola crayons! Love it! — 11 years ago
