Took typically dry varieties and made them sweet. Good, not as sweet as the white blend. Sweet wine drinkers will really enjoy it. — 10 years ago

Nice to have balanced Napa Cab Franc that isn't heavy handed. Expresses the wonderful amount of sunshine we get in CA while maintaining great acid. A kiss of oak to add depth and aroma but not dominating. Lovely dark mineral and graphite notes backdrop dense fruit, violets, and spice. — 10 years ago

Светло-соломенное с зеленью. Очень свежее. Кислотность не чувствуется. Достаточно плотное, тельное, средняя маслянистость. Цитрусовые, цветы. Послевкусие пряное. Очень-очень круто! На каждый день, бюджетно. — 10 years ago

Vallado.. Do... Do... Do... One of the best Douros I have tasted... Complex structure with the excitement of the first teenage kiss. It thrilled my taste buds and then danced at the back of my throat... Baroness very happy as it was the wine at her birthday celebration... I believe the vineyards of Douro are soon to become world class....@Delectablewine Delectablewine — 11 years ago

All the pretty stuff you would expect out of this producer. Flowers, quince, candied kumquats. Let it hang out in your glass and you'll get some baby's breath, lime, and something like your first kiss. — 12 years ago

Crushed red fruits/berries, kiss of sassafras, lip smacking acidity, fine tannins that ride in the front seat. Medium-long finish. Immensely drinkable. — 11 years ago

Wine has a nice lemon, apricot, honeysuckle and maybe plumeria aroma. Taste is viscous and sweet but well balanced with a full sensory palette and long finish. Some bitter orange taste with well round sweet highlights. A fun evening dessert wine. — 12 years ago

Pretty awesome value-driven, juicy Frappato here! Pours a moderate ruby-garnet, with ripe strawberry and cherry fruit, rhubarb, plum skin, fresh red floral character, some slight anise-y spice notes, and that clay pot earthiness that seems so common in Italian reds (to my palate, at least) comprise the nose, which follows onto the palate but is underpinned by a slight smoky, gamey character that's surprising but also quite pleasant. It kinda reminds me of the type of smokiness exhibit by peated Scotch but much less intense and playing a subtle supporting role rather than taking center stage. Viscosity and body are medium (-), acid is medium, with the slightest kiss of fine-grained tannin. In general kinda makes me think "Italian Beaujolais." Good juice. — 10 years ago

Reminiscent of Beaujolais' Gamay, this southern part of Tuscany's Ampeleia is producing some fine red wine! Mine tonight, after 30 minutes swim and spin in the decanter's pool of naked open space and air shows first to the nose wet rocks, slate and sandstone freshly accenting menthol and anise then strictly earthen dirt and minerals and a hint of the berries. First kiss is lightly but intriguingly nasty, wet and dripping red fruit which immediately coats and clings but most interestingly reaches back for the wet rocks overlooking the Med, then re-engages just in time to leave hints of her red and blue berry essence complimenting the blackened octopus in a mash of white beans and spices laced with a hint of Tabasco offered up by Chapel Hill's Il Palio located off Franklin Street (checkout both) Ciao🕶 — 10 years ago
