Impeccably balanced and enough fruit to please the Cab drinker in our family. Me. — 2 months ago

Evolution on this bottle is very good. See previous notes. Everything is blending perfectly, becoming a more classic Merlot — 8 months ago

Decanted for several hours, great with food but tannins still very dry without. I’d give it a lot more time to mellow. — 2 years ago

2004 is drinking beautifully now. Great Italian cab. Rampolla is one of the best producers. Highly recommend — 7 years ago

Quite deep ruby centre with quite thin garnet rim . Pretty young looking appearance . On the nose there are some cassis , raspberry , with touches of vanilla, dry spices , cedar and mint. On the palate some sweet cassis , raspberry , cherry , grafite , ground coffee, with the vanilla and spice notes of the nose . Balanced acidity with slightly drying tannins. Ok length with a tobacco and coffee tinged finish. Needed a little time to come together and food certainly helped also . This is probably at peak now so I would drink from now over the next 5 -8 years or so . — 3 months ago

Raised in ‘cocciopesto’ which is an amphora kind of barrel based on clay and lime. Very fruit forward, soft tannins. Way better than I expected. Good job!

@Delectable this is the Donna Liu. First vintage of Rampolla’s 100% merlot. Hints of a Pomerol but more fruit forward embedded with some cassis hints. Good tannic backbone which proves the best is yet to come. Castello dei Rampolla rocks! — 4 years ago
