Retro '08 Napa Valley. Nice work Miley. This is delicious. I'm biased b/c you are my brother from another mother. Others enjoyed it also. — 9 years ago
Wow. Best I have had. I wasn't expecting it b/c of the vintage year. Other vintages were too dominated by the semion. — 9 years ago

Yer ma drinks this (obvi b/c yer ma values deeply wines of unspeakable balance, the poise of a promise in the year of election, & weatherbeaten/Aragorn-rugged claims to the throne.
Hint of the lambic, touch of the forest. Fit for kings, wicked & brave alike.) #yermadrinksthis — 9 years ago
Really nice welcoming aromas of cola, nutmeg and spice box. Palette is soft, yet rich. Cola is dominant, with a hint of lychee, finishing sweet. Tannins are almost completely resolved. Drink the 07's now. B-C is a strong pinot producer. — 9 years ago
Corked! Why do I love? B/c second bottle was racy and lean with spicy fruit on the nose, cherries on the palate and a long finish. Furthermore, buying wines from stand up guys like @Lyle Fass who credit corked bottles is a refreshing change. Thanks for doing right and keep bringing out gems like this! — 9 years ago
Knowing this is Vistalba's entry level blend, I wish Corte A & B were readily available in our market. — 10 years ago
More charm and less sulphur than a lot of C-d-B whites. — 11 years ago
Ahhh 2006 was such a great year! Full bodied, ripe delicious fruit. So good! And yes, Kim, I give everything a big smiley face b/c I rarely ever buy sucky wine. :) — 11 years ago
The yang to the B-C. Great weight & tropical fruits. — 11 years ago
Very good - oaky but not too oaky. Buttery flavor leads to a nice finish. — 12 years ago

I've got no kids and no husband this evening. Everyone had plans but me. No need to worry b/c I decided to open this. Needed a little time to open up but after an hour or so it showed its true colors. Loads of dark fruit on the nose but delicate on the palette. Great even for a 2011. Enjoying every glass! 😊👍🍷 — 9 years ago
This shit is cool. a) has a pink glass cork b) a color pink I normally reject in flowers or wines c) Austrian rosé d) slightly fizzy when you pop it #bangbang #winesathome certified would bang again. — 9 years ago
100% Chardonnay from Grand Cru vineyards in the Cotes des Blancs. This Blanc de Blancs has a lot of weight and lush fruit but there is always a nice acidic edge with Thienot even though they usually allow MLF (exception blocked MLF with 2002 "La Vigne Aux Gamins" b/c 65 year old vines & not enough acidity). And there is always a fresh, clean profile with their wines. Incredible precision & focus while offering lots of stone fruit. — 10 years ago
Day 1: nose = blackstrap molasses
mouth = yucky, b/c the kale salad totally jammed up our taste buds :(
Day 2: nose = choc covered cherries, soy, heat
mouth = fleshed out, sweet/sour cherries, bit of grip, great acid — 11 years ago
Enjoyed at posada margarita with b&c asked them to be in wedding party. — 11 years ago

Pinot night. More fruit forward than other B-C i've had. Expansive on the mid palate, a little short on the finish but overall very nice. — 8 years ago
