Lovely example of the variety, not as wild & savage as some VA Norton, yet still plenty of flavor w/an elegant presentation. Great stuffing, balance & style. — a month ago

Wild stuff, see previous note for 06. This is 2012 and had some add’l notes of rose petal & lavender. Really unusual but interesting much more polished. Lots of fresh boysenberry, elderberry and brambly fruit. Sweet inner core. — 2 months ago

A great Bordeaux blend from Argentina, deep Ruby with complex aromas of red/black fruits, floral and earthy herbs. On the palate flavors of blackberry, cacao, oak and floral herbs. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit and earthy oak. Nice. Tasting Sample! — 2 months ago

What a treat - fairly obscure Spanish varietal - seems like every time I’ve had a wine from Manchuela it’s been excellent. Very dark garnet color with really expressive, exuberant nose of wild herbs, black & blue fruit, underbrush, some medicinal, spice, smoke, earthy, some legit funk and it really evolved aromatically. On the palate it was med bodied w/great density of flavor without over-extraction. Nice interplay of acidity & tannins. Just juicy enough w/big time sour cherries and dusty spice flavors. Has that savage quality of Norton grape. Finish was decent verging on the rustic. — 3 months ago
