Very nice LBV Porto. Cherry cola bursts in the nose and palate and then into cedar, vanilla, clove. A pleasant Fernet-like astringency keeps the sugar at bay. — 11 years ago

A dense glass-staining purple, the '06 Charles Smith Syrah 'Royal City' is a monumental wine. Big, pungent aromas of game, truffles, black olives and dried fruits exploded from the glass. Complex, but still seamlessly balanced. The tastes stayed on the palate for a seemingly infinite length of time. Simply wonderful! — 13 years ago
