Francis Ford Coppola Winery

Diamond Collection Black Label Claret California Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Blackberry and plum aroma. In the mouth it’s heavier, spicier, and hotter. It brings in wood, black pepper, and pretty strong acidity. It might settle down with some air. But first impressions is that it’s big and interesting, and a good value. — 6 years ago

Groth Vineyards & Winery

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Subtle and complex; black currant and licorice aromas. Full body; ultra-fine tannins; fresh finish. Clean and refined. Delicious. — 6 years ago

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2011

Really looking forward to seeing how this CDP opens up. On the nose plenty of funk, yes, but as it blows off there are hints of black soil, mushrooms, dust, red fruit, and a slight floral aroma with potpourri and cedar that is beginning to rear its head. On the palate it's quite tight, but as time passes away so will the astringency. Rating will definitely increase as time goes on. EDIT- Day 2 and this wine is on point! Upgraded from 8.7 to 9.0. — 8 years ago

Albe Barolo Nebbiolo 2012

An overall translucent red with a broad crimson core extending to a thick ruby border with a thin orange brick rim. Medium plus intensity of aroma in the nose floral dominant and mineral driven (chalk). Rose petal, dried green herbs, tomato leaf. Subtle fruit aromas are ripe, red cherry candy, raspberry jam. Tactile sensations initially dominate the palate, high levels of acid and chalky astringency linger with medium plus alcohol 13.5%ABV but ultimate reveals a seductive mouth filling, medium finish featuring fresh red fruit perfume, ripe red cherry,basil, black pepper, and a touch of savory bacon, black olive, and wood smoke — 8 years ago

Delicate balance but still a heady aroma; primarily developed dried fruit (mostly cherry) mixed in with oak, cedar, vanilla, and tobacco but not dominating the fruit. Very nice — 5 years ago

Fattoria di Fèlsina Berardenga

Fontalloro Toscana Sangiovese 2006

Quite dark with no sign of bricking. The aroma is powerful with dark fruit, some notes of oak/wood, coffee, herbs and some meaty notes. Definitely full bodied. Tannins are still present but are nicely integrated. Supported by good acidity but finishes a bit hot for my taste. — 5 years ago

Good aroma and even concentrated compared with 2012, from the beginning. Blackberry, licorice. Enough acidity, still need a decanting time. 2nd day, I found ink flavor. 4th day, much better in concentration and ink flavor. 2010 @2500, wine plus - XH , 180908-190330 — 7 years ago

Château Palmer

Alter Ego Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

12th bottle of this beauty we can't stop drinking as so good young! @£50 - reviewed before & was a quick bottle last night so I think what I said before captures it well 😁

A proper good Margaux! Dark plummy blackened red. Aroma of plum, blackcurrant & wet stones. Thick intensive balanced smooth jammy blackcurrant, cocoa & plums on palate with med body. Long back fruit finish with little acidity.

Mrs E suggested it's like "bare breasted maidens under a blackberry waterfall!" Who am I to argue 😎😍
