Picked up in Nantes, France. Taste a lot like the 12yr to me which costs about the same but at least you get a full 750mls — 12 years ago

Killer wine by Ric Forman. So complex and still so fresh. Insanely silky texture. Black cherries, button mushroom, chalk, mint, mulch, fresh prune. Yum. — 12 years ago

I wonder how long it's been since they made wine like that?!?!

Had the same wine out of the Press cellar. Agree on notes. Quite delicious.

Hello again friends. Simple review tonight. 51% syrah/25% malbec/24% petit verdot. There's purple fruit (boysenberry? black raspberry?) in here. Minerality kicks you in the throat. I hate to admit that because this vineyard is touted as an oyster graveyard, "therefore mineral character, of course..." I did a lit review on minerality in wine and nobody seems to understand it - it's certainly not as simple as calcium in the soil. But this bitch pushes the mineral button for sure. Hell of a deal at $17.49. Opened yesterday and had a glass, refrigerated, absolutely crushed the remainder tonight w/ grilled scallions smothered in romesco. — 13 years ago
