Small group for this month's WTF wine meet up, so why not hit up Fort Worth's best BYOB?
I didn't know AR made a cab, but I am very much happy to have found out they did. What a lovely change up from the fruit bombs out of Napa. This could pass for a young high quality Bordeaux producer. No leather notes, but I wasn't hit in the face with every fruit on the color spectrum. Decadent blackberries wrapped in clove, and rhubarb pie. Beautiful texture on the palate. Plums, and black licorice in the mid palate but the finish has a sweet french bread, black cherry cola note. Thanks Jose! — 8 years ago

This is a brilliant wine. Red fruit, smooth, elegant. I haven't had a wine this good in a very long time. AR$732 / US$45 at a restaurant in Buenos Aires, in NYC this is a $150. Mazaltov to you if you can find it. — 8 years ago

AR 2011 Vintage — 9 years ago
Love this stuff. The non-Americans were split between Burgundy/Maconnaise and cool new world site. They also thought it had a bit of new oak.
Refreshing fruit, some malo texture and flavor, green apple as well as a faint green herbal note.
My fave of the AR Chards — 9 years ago
Dark fruit lifted by florals. Gentle smoke. Integrated tannins with a light bite ar the end. medium body with good finish. Plenty of life — 7 years ago
The dog abides when this stuff comes out. Drank this next to the Arnot Roberts Trout Gulch of the same vintage (AR was on its 2nd day). This was a medium shimmering yellow color, compared to the pale yellow, slightly green tinged AR. It is silkier and longer on the palate, with notes of lemon curd, oily grapefruit rind. A little more finesse and power, a little less bright acidity. I give this version of the trout the slight edge tonight but they are both great and have different functions in the lineup — 8 years ago
I'm sold on Location's wine. This blend isn't super dry (my preference) but it's not sweet either (no thanks). Will be buying more from them. — 8 years ago
