Beautifully balanced for the style, I'd love to see this in 10yrs from now, it may show a little more VA, but there's a great noblesse to it all the same... — 7 years ago
Magnum - Still quite youthful, showing a beautifully high toned red berry intensity, classically balanced style from this producer, it still needs time out of magnum, but there is such an amazing noblesse in the reds. — 8 years ago
Wow, this is impressive, such a high-toned citrus intensity, just the right amount of oak contact, such noblesse, amazing wine. — 8 years ago

95/5 mourvèdre/grenache. inviting aromas. dried black currants, fresh blackberry, plum, 5 spice, bay leaf. medium weight, tannins start early and are firm, slightly grippy. I like this a lot. 2014!enjoyed 1/2018 — 6 years ago
Great wine. Toasted scents with white chocolate, tobacco flavours and a pinch of blackcurrant. Full-bodied and warm on the palate. Great linger (albeit a little dry). — 8 years ago
A little bland & rustic, but has some great intensity, just lacking finesse & noblesse, hence a reason it's not 1855 rated? — 8 years ago
Tastes like a fortified wine, like Marsala — 8 years ago

Noir
Nez mur sur la réglisse des épices et un cote sanguin s affinera avec une journee d aeration
Bouche mûre suave avec un déséquilibre sur l alcool et l ultra maturité. Ceci disparaît complètement apres 24 h d ouverture. Le vin devient fin précis et délicat
Noblesse du grain tannique. Equilibre parfait — 7 years ago
Still more from my recent trip to Tokaji—the Szepsy Szamorodni Tokaji 2012 is honey-golden robed, it's a glinting treasure chest of apricot preserves, marmalade, mango puree, Tahitian vanilla, baking spice and that most compelling note of smoky, terroir-driven expression that is both indelible and unique. In the mouth, it's rich and round, showing noblesse and pedigree. It's vivid, pure and crystalline, a balance of apricot walled in with stony terrace and walnut skins. — 8 years ago

One of my favorite finds of 2014....Beautiful bright fruit with wonderful tannic structure…amazing balance for a New World wine. Reportedly, a wine club only offering – this was just $22 at the home farm store in Middleburg.The 2013 vintage is now available but I have not tried it to compare — 9 years ago
