Albino Pestoni

Rutherford Grove

Estate Reserve Pestoni Family Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

Dark ruby red in color with a red rim.

What a gorgeous nose, with vanilla, spices, blackberries, cherries, oak, chocolate and black pepper.

Medium + in body, smooth and elegant.

Dry and smooth on the palate with cherries, black currants, Wood, vanilla, smoke, oak, spices and black pepper.

Long finish with round smooth tannins and peppercorn.

This is an awesome wine. Eight years old and showing a great capacity to age even longer.
If it had a little less vanilla this would be a perfect score, for me. If vanilla is your thing, this is it. Great Napa Valley Cabernet.

Only 400 cases were produced on this Howell mountain Reserve. 94 points wine enthusiast.

14.4% alcohol by volume.

Vallagarina Foja Tonda Casetta 2000

Giampiero Nadali
9.1

Foja Tonda is an autochthonous grape of Vallagarina (at the border of Verona and Trento wine region), this 2000 vintage(in blend with some Cabernet Sauv.) seems to be at top of his evolution. Mature, with wide and pleasant hints of red fruits. Elegant, long, excellent. — 13 years ago
