Cape Mentelle

Margaret River Zinfandel 2004

Bob McDonald

9.4

Cape Mentelle was an early pioneer with Zinfandel in Australia with winemaker David Hohnen. This was easily the best of 4 masked Zins including 2 Californians which were admittedly younger but very lolly jelly beans. This has reawakened my interest in Zins. Brilliant wine. 18. — 10 years ago

Our French hosts in Nice asked us to bring them a bottle of 2007 Cape Mentelle as they had heard it rivaled their French wines! Not sure how it measured up for them but lovely to see it here!!

Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2011

Roger Cabrera

9.2

Opening a 4-year old Barolo is often considered infanticide. This however is brilliant. Clean notes of cherries with undertones of bramble and turpentine all the while a glowing hum of violets. The violets are there beginning, middle and end. Fantastic acidity and a refined tannic structure. Not a classically made Barolo, but a modern gem. — 10 years ago

Riserva Montestefano Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1989

Rob Lateiner

Nothing stops this from just getting younger and younger in the glass after being double decanted 4-5 hours prior. Color darkens, fruit becomes brilliant and fresh, tannins emerge. Dried roses and dark, deep red fruit, some nice wood. Nebbiolo is king. One of the best wines I've ever had! — 11 years ago

9.4

Brilliant, for my tastes the best Muscadet I have ever had. Minerally, pure, with nice depth and roundness from the sur-lies aging for 4 years. Citrus and flowers meet rocks and steel. — 10 years ago
