Delicate perfumed nose - almost precious. Maybe too shy for me. — 7 years ago

Still drinking like a baby. Very shy in the nose initially until we decanted a bit and opened up. Lovely bouquet of black fruits, chocolate, tobacco, leather and earth. Amazing wine but will be even better in 5-10 yrs — 8 years ago

Sonoma coast Pinot. Not a shy wine, full bodied and very smooth. Tuck Beckstoffer offering. — 9 years ago

Alex Powell

9.2

A bit wound up on nose, still smoky with fresh blackcurrant and elderberry, pine bough, tangy orange and tobacco leaf. Very woodsy, but also quite shy...palate is hugely mineral and mouthcoating, touch of spice, monumental and fresh, long length. No doubt quite excellent, but not showing its arsenal today...wait 5 years at least if you have such patience! — 9 years ago

A perfect Red for those looking to expand their wine from sweet whites like moscato...there isn't that dry kick back you get from most reds...this one is a sweet wine with a grape juice texture to it... — 9 years ago

Shy at first, this took off like a rocket. Soaring aromatics, beautiful palate. — 9 years ago

9.2

Very shy at first while showing its earthy side. However, this was the only of the three wines for dinner that elevated itself with cuisine. Took about two hours for voluptuous fruit to come out. Definitely the elegant side of Brunello — 9 years ago

Dried fruit. Raisins and plums dancing in oak. Med body and alcohol. High acid and lingering finish. Nothing shy of amazeballs. — 10 years ago

George Chen

8.9

Tightly wound and structured with high nose and excellent acid balance. A little shy in fruit as minerality is the shine. — 8 years ago

Jim Wagonfeld

9.0

Deep gold in color. Honey, melon, pineapple and other tropical fruits. Oaky and shy on acid and minerals. Smooth mouth feel and long. Not overly heavy and good with rich fish. — 8 years ago

Having failed miserably at our 2015 new years resolution to drink up our aging cellar faster, we're glad we still have some of these around. Shy at first but then becoming fuller in the glass, this was an excellent hamburger wine tonight. With Alex in Oakland 12-17-2015.. — 8 years ago

9.5

Another one from my favorite winery. Had a more memorable tasting with the Dakota than the Montoya, but the Montoya offers a punch in the face bold cab that's hits like a Bordeaux — 9 years ago

9.3

Shy citrus nose. Citrus and apple favors. Lots of stones/flint. Excellent acidity. Long finish. Still young. Great wine, now priced beyond reason in my market. Glad to have several bottles still stored. THIS IS DIDIER NOT SERGE. — 9 years ago

94 is singing out of the bottle, at its prime. Integration at its best and a lot of that character you expect out of Vega retained. Not shy at all. — 9 years ago
