Pairs extremely well with manchego and Parmesan reggiano. Do yourself a favor and pair this with charcuterie plate. Zippy, mineral, with notes of pineapple, apple & lemon. Drinks well alone, better with fatty cheese — 9 years ago

Wow. A really great example of what time open can do for a wine. Minute 1: really tight and almost cheap. Minute 30: so open and smooth you would think you were drinking a great burgundy. — 10 years ago
Um fantástico vinho. Pareço estar tomando um chardonnay do Napa. Amarelo dourado, belas pernas.
No nariz, frutas brancas secas (pessego, pera, abacaxi), banana. Tostado (fermentado em barrica), baunilha e manteiga. Na boca, uma bela acidez e álcool equilibrado. Muito bom vinho, pronto pra beber. Parabéns ao Bettù, enólogo. Preço alto. — 11 years ago
Um dos melhores vinhos portugueses que já tomei. Bem incorpado, com acidez adequada e alto teor alcoólico. Da região de Sado, perto de Setúbal — 11 years ago
Lovely balanced and complex wine - could do with a little more fruit forward, but solid choice paired with red meat — 8 years ago
You cant do anything but love this basic bottling from Cantina Terlan. Balanced, nice acidity, refreshing but serious. One year since my last bottle and this has kept improving. Will drink well for atleast couple of years. — 8 years ago
A journey to the centre of the earth and back, then on to the moon, knocking on the doors of Venus and all the other planets.
Very close to perfection.
Nothing to do with the Tuscan Vin Santo, more like a German TBA. Game of sweetness, freshness, density, viscosity, eternity and who knows what more. A must in your cellar to keep for special occasions.✌️❤️ — 9 years ago
Chardonnay do sim do Tirol. Boa acidez e tem corpo, boa surpresa — 9 years ago
Made by monks and farmed organically, although they do not have official recognition, this red wine is very dark, both in appearance and in smell. The wine's nose offers lovely aromas of blackberry and blueberry draped in savory notes of spice, herb and black olives. The palate is just as complex, with black berries, anise, a little tar and a trace of espresso. — 10 years ago

Lovely bright light little alpine red fruits and perfumey goodness and not corked unlike the last 2 bottles. Why do people still use cork? — 12 years ago
Iron, lavender, honey, sour green candy. Opened up into very textured wine with mineral undertone. Unraveled after a few hours as young wines of considerable potential are wont to do. Easily a 10 year wine with fascinating potential for bottle evolution. — 8 years ago
Changed my rating from a 8.6 to an 8.9. Baked the tilapia with mushrooms and paired it with broccoli and rice with salt and butter. Fantastic pairing. This wine went from a dud to having some great flavors. Drank the remaining half of the wine from yesterday. The food I cooked had some spice and the subtle sweet flavor of the Pinot made the wine a good pairing. Would recommend now.
Flavors went well with the pan cooked tilapia, Brussels sprouts and white rice. Didn't over complicate nor take the show. It was just there. Simple there wine. Don't taste much of the pear, but I do taste the grape. Would compare to a sparkling wine. By itself it tasted cheap with an obnoxious aftertaste. Didn't love it, didn't hate it. Just a relative that you know you have, but don't ever talk to. This wine reminds of just being at a party and no one knowing if you were there or left.

Unfortunately my notes were lost... But impression of the "best wine ever" is still in my heart ;) Do remember how we were sitting 1.5hrs after successful dinner to enjoy this masterpiece...
The color is intense ruby red; notes of cassis and blueberry blend with the shades of white chocolate and vanilla. Soft on the palate, many fruits and spices support the persistence. Elegant and balanced. — 9 years ago
With seafood homemade pasta. Delish. Do again. — 10 years ago
Delicious and balanced cab. Slightly berry but mostly just grapes doing what they do best, giving me a delicate pillow of a classy ass buzz. Pairs well with sailors and other fine folk. — 11 years ago

Lychee and pear on nose; taste is juicy lychee fruit with mid to low sweetness; bright and crisp acid; I do not taste the warmth of its 14% acid. Delicious. — 8 years ago
