Merlot/sangiovese blend with the black cherries to prove it, like a lighter super Tuscan. A little closed the first day but opened up a little more the second. — 6 years ago

Great, zippy wine! Beautiful color. Lots of acid. Enjoyed with Alanna and Mom, shrimp eggplant stacks and roasted veg. Would be a great sushi wine though. — 7 years ago

Day 3 in Napa in the books! Running a day behind on notes...Napa time runs slow AND fast!

Ashes & Diamonds...blast from the past! Retro style. Son of Darioush is the owner here. Open until 7PM...definitely aiming towards us Millennials. This was their most left bank Bordeaux-style wine. Loads of red & black underripe fruit with mushroom, truffle oil, plum, and cigar smoke. Smooth yet structured. All of their wines are definitely a throw back to a different era. — 7 years ago

Excited to finally try a bottle out of the Ashes and Diamonds portfolio. Steve Matthiasson was the maker of this particular wine. Very balanced. Subtle power, beautiful earthy nose. — 5 years ago

What an unexpected surprise. Was turned on to this and thankful i was. New world wine, with wonderful mouthfeel that keep going down the pallet. Typical Paso Robles structure. Love this — 7 years ago

On pop & pour, nose is a mix of older red fruit, earth, tobacco. It's transitioning to a mature wine, in spite of being stored in a back bedroom for 5 years.

7 min in glass, and the entry is warm, earthy, and gritty at first. Very high mid palate. Super long finish. Longer than I would expect of a merlot. Picking up some green notes, like stems of rosemary or thyme. But not piney!

I think this is getting better with age. Probably in its prime right now. — 8 years ago
