Second bottle just as delicious as the first! Just opened in Jan 2016 (was worried I had let it sit for too long). @Aran Healy are you getting more this year? 😍 — 10 years ago
A no-sulfur merlot from Aran. Medium plus ruby to a red rim. Complex, well-integrated, and quite developed nose of ripe to overripe plum, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, bruised apple skins (suggestions of acetaldehyde/oxidation), stewed/browned tomatoes, and hints of sweet tobacco, robitussin / cough syrup, and a fair bit of toasty, nutmeggy new oak. Medium plus bodied, with elevated alcohol (13.2%, seems a bit higher), diminished acid, and a light dusting of tannins. This is delicious. I'm fan of this, though I understand why some of my friends didn't like it. It tastes weirdly advanced for a 2013. If blinded, I might guess it's a 2005, save for the color. But the flavors are fresh and the varietal character is there. — 10 years ago

Moscato. Honeyed apples, lengthy. 5.5% — 9 years ago
Extraordinary! Don't underestimate Moscato when it is left alone in a barrel under the stairs in the vineyard cellar for 20 years. Might of guessed sherry, or rancio, truly unique. — 9 years ago
Dark cherries and tobacco. Moderate spice and tannins - tasting dark chocolate and a hint of burnt wood on day 2
Assuming this is from @Aran Healy wine club but not sure 🤔 — 9 years ago
Absurdly easy to drink. Ciliegiolo is the grape. Thanks for this, @Aran Healy — 10 years ago
1995 Bordeaux we had after Ami Bera retreat. Smooth and youthful- probably 10 years. Ripe Cherry , Medium Weight. — 10 years ago
Super crisp and dry - honeysuckle but sucking the moisture out of mouth. Love it - zippy and perfect for summer. Thank you @Aran Healy for throwing this in the wine club! — 10 years ago
Un moscato davvero buono: non troppo dolce o stucchevole, aromatico e fruttato, con profumi intensi e bollicine fini. — 11 years ago
No touchy for 2-3 years. Cool to meet the MAN Philippe. Thanks for hosting Aran. — 12 years ago

A beautifully balanced example of Moscato d'Asti. Off-dry and definitely less sweet than many, this wine emphasizes the appeallingly herbaceous side of Moscato. Orange blossom, clover, honey, acacia and a hint of hay give this real appeal. Terrific as an aperitif with salumi or in Piemonte tradition, with hazelnut cake for dessert — 8 years ago
