Another "Hell Yes++," which basically means I can drink a whole bottle, still want more and also afford it. — 7 years ago
This is a good one. Wine guy said it was a "slutty Grenache." And while I don't know what the hell that means, this was a fruity tongue kicker that had me wanting to convert to the $30 price range for everyday wine. — 7 years ago
The OLDEST wine I have ever drank and what an expression. At this age you're drinking history and one hell of a story. — 8 years ago
06' Barnard Magrez Cabernet. 83% CB 12% CF 5%PV. WOW... A rare bottle indeed. This was sourced from the famous Vineyard Thorevilos (Abreu). Aaron Pott was its winemaker in 2006.
A 2 hour + on the decanting. All the elegant black fruit you can imagine in this glass. A 30+ finish. It's certainly in the discussion of one of the finest 2006's I've had out of Napa. Drinking well now & has another 20+ great years in it.
Barnard Magrez is now sourcing there fruit from Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyards. If you didn't get enough Realm Dr. Crane 12/13's. Hell… just want to add another great wine! This certainly could be a viable option(wish list). Benoit Touquette is "NOW" the winemaker😉👍!!
I'm not saying the 12 & 13's are another Realm Dr. Crane. They're the same winemaker & sourcing🤔. Just a thought... — 8 years ago
Dense as hell, from the best year of the 80s. Lightening up around the edge but still quite dark; wonderfully thick nose full of tertiary aromas and woody, smoky blackcurrent skins. Lacking the typical cedary St Julien nose and so fat I though it was a top St Estephe. Bordeaux the way it should be - none of this modern style crap; this is wine built to last. — 8 years ago

My first bottle of MM. Inky dark, hell its midnight black. Floral and dare I say violet and spice nose with flavors of currants, pine needles, charred meats, freshly picked black and blue berries all rapped in soft tannins that evoke a voluptuous mouth feel that stays on your tongue like a romantic sexy kisses that lingers.

15' Pali Wine Company Huntington Pinot Noir.
I purchased the 2014 because it was the editors choice from Wine Enthusiast. Very enjoyable for $20. I thought what the hell let's get six of the 2015 when I visited few months back. Very happy I did. I haven't had a better "California"Pinot for the money. — 7 years ago
Priorat!! One of my favorite regions for sure. This one is delightfully pleasant. Cinnamon and floral notes on the nose. Cherries, strawberries, and even some unexpected blueberries on the palate. Since this bottle isn't oaked to high hell, there's a fresh and rustic taste here. There's somewhat of a sharp edge that I'm really digging too. While just a little baby, this is made for drinking now. — 8 years ago
