Had this bottle at the Bird Cafe in Pt Arena. They have very reasonable corkage fees. This is a very velvety dense Pinot. Loved it, so glad I started buying from winery in early 2000, think this 2014 could go another 15-20 years.
Slow to open, but lasting through the 3 hour dinner, wish bottle was bigger — 6 years ago

The most delicious and refined super premium wine out Spain that you never heard of. A selection of the fruit from a small old vineyard plot planted over 100 years ago. Only the best will go i to Vatan Arena, and a special Wine this is. Think Bordeaux meets with early 80’s Napa and had a lovechild! If you get a chance to by some, drink some do it! I can only imagine how this beauty would age! — 7 years ago

Almost on the cherry almond amaretto palette. For a novelty wine, this is very surprising. Definitely a sweet taste but pleasant with the appropriate dessert. Like pistachio gelato. Yum — 8 years ago

A bit like old Savennières. Hazelnut and quince. A fino sherry note also. — 8 years ago

Rolle aka vermentino. Very assertive upfront expression - big nose for a white (corn?), slight sweetness. Lychee, white peach. Stole the show in a vermentino night vs Antoine Arena & Yves Leccia. — 10 years ago

Smells okay, not super complex, a little sharp, very clean finish. Had with Indian food with Sophie and Brad, enhanced the spiciness. — 8 years ago

Local wine shop has me on this Corsican kick lately for which I am thankful. This wine is deep and intense with dark complexity and a moody dried fruits and herbs combo. — 7 years ago

Intense body for an intense wine. Wonderful dark ruby with garnet shades. Intense note of wood (barriques, 50% new), a great leather and tobacco over riped red fruits. A note of under spirit black cherries in the mouth with silky tannins. Perfect acidity (from Sangiovese) to pair a good "ossobuco". 14,5% alcohol but only a few hint of it in the nose. Should be refined in the cellar but it's already a good wine. Ah, a wonderful place to visit, too, with its impressive "barriques arena" by Renzo Piano. — 10 years ago
