honeydew, lime, kiwi, and white peach. Light and tropical with good acidity. My husband liked this one too, which usually translates to crowd pleasing. — 2 months ago
This was a Magnum; has to be one of the greater Italian Reds. Thanks Tom; from the Barry Scmechal collection — 4 months ago
Drank this oldie last night after 12+ hours of air and decanting just enough to retrieve cork fragments. Delicious. Couldn't believe it. — 3 months ago
Took a while to open up but once it did it was very nice. Dark berries and blueberries with some noticeable acid and tannins. Could be laid down for many more years. — 25 days ago

Quite a nice montelena - and birth year to boot! Had with some Allen bros wagyu ribeyes, which honestly were too gratuitous, wouldn’t purchase again.
Would have guessed this was older Bordeaux from the nose, which is a high compliment. Decanted 2 hours and took it fine - the tannins are still quite there. But the fruit is secondary and quite seamless in a nice way. Finish maybe slightly lacking some depth which would make this higher - but overall very good. — 5 days ago
