@David A Lentine @Gina Sabean @Christine You know that you are drinking GREAT wines when you can say that a Realm Beckstoffer To Kalon came in last. I love this producer beyond measure!! Every wine they make is a hit. Everyone tonight agreed that drank by itself it would have been amazing. However, it still needs a few years to open up and spread its wings!! All of my bottles were decanted for 8 hours today, I began formulating thus rodeo of a lineup around 11am. The Realm had huge dark fruit but too many rough edges in comparison to the others. In all honesty, these are so good that we are splitting hairs but alas they must be ranked and that is how the Cookie Crumbled this evening. — 9 years ago

2006 Vintage one of the Best wines I have had. Been saving one bottle for a special occasion, and Thursday night had my wine drinking group. Having Drank other bottles of the 2006, I would say this was about 1 year beyond it's peak, but still exceptional compared to subsequent vintages of the same. — 10 years ago

Van from witching stick and I were cross eyed to find this wine a Pinot. Beyond its microbial speed bumps, this wine was fresh and legit. — 10 years ago

This chick is a slum dunk no matter who, what, where, when, or why. Beyond a safe bet, even at $200. And yes, it's ready to go NOW — 9 years ago

An extremely well balanced and integrated wine that is moving beyond its peak. Great representation of a 1997 Napa "cab". — 9 years ago

About as good as Grenache gets. Not many others that are better. Stewed black fruits, pencil lead, and smoky minerals. Evolves with aromas of steamed veggies and chocolate. The dusty tannins and pervasive acidity can potentially take this wine to 2020 and beyond. — 11 years ago

Surprisingly still in tact for a 49 year old bottle. Upon opening the wine was sharp with acid, but after 5 hours of decanting the wine softened to allow notes of dried rose petals, cherries, and cranberries through. The wine has a tawny oxidized hue and has an ethereal translucence due to its age. This is probably a few years beyond its prime, but still incredibly enjoyable. — 9 years ago
