"Time in a bottle"
100% Xarel•lo from a single vineyard, 2005 vintage... a fine premium Cava. 1st fermentation (still wine) is made in oak barrels, 2nd on the bottle, where it ages on the lees 120 or more months (+10 years). Very elegant and with a genuine Xarel•lish-wine touch: herbacious, citric, some nuts and buttery. Persistent bubbles and with a long finish. There is still a lot of life in this bottle! — 9 years ago
Don't know if it's because I'm having this at a genuine French bistro in Paris but this is awesome — 10 years ago

Label in bad shape from an excess humidity event in the wine cabinet. One of the most counterfeited wines in the world. More 1982 Lafite sold in China than were made!! I know this is genuine as I bought it new in 1985 at Roseville Cellars for $120 together with a 1982 Margaux drunk 6 years ago and the best wine I have ever had. This 82 Lafite had a dusty cedar cigar box nose with fading plum notes. As Jancis says A racy savoury palate with frail fruit. Cannot be more accurate than that. A total experience. — 11 years ago

ripe red and black fruit aromas and gentle cedar and leathery notes from the time spent in oak barrels. Round and genuine on the palate, smooth and with balanced acidity. Full-bodied, polished texture and refined tannins add consistency to this red wine. Very Good — 9 years ago

Pure Alentejo Soul! Quality price ratio is top! It aged for about 5 years at 14 degrees and darkness. Etc. was still a genuine wine at the time of the 2009 harvest. Now a days it unfortunately shifted to a rather commercial banks wine. — 10 years ago

Was worried this might not be the genuine article, but it seems to be. Subtle tastes and some complex notes make this a nice drop. — 9 years ago
Smooth, buttery chard. Screw top and didn't hold up perfectly in the frig (lost buttery notes, but also didn't get a bad taste/bitterness) for 2 days. — 9 years ago

It is a Prosecco Superiore Brut who does ageing on the yeasts at the end of secondary fermentation in the bottle (Metodo Classico). My dear friend Silvano Follador firmly believes to the hig potential of secondary fermentation with disgorging instead of Charmat or "sur lie" (col fondo) method which may be sometimes too sweet or even not stable because the presence of the work-in-progress yeast. Acidity, cleanness and savoury sensations that's what Silvano's steadily looking for in his Prosecco and I must admit these are all features that I found for instance, in this Dosaggio Zero (pas dosè) 2010 vintage, who left right on my mouth a genuine feeling of citrus and loquats freshly picked from the branch and squeezed directly into the glass. — 11 years ago
This 2003 vintage offers a genuine Knights valley Cabernet Sauvignon at 13.8% alc by Hawkes vineyard in Healdsburg, California. Aromas and palate of plum, red ripe field berries, medium tannins and acidity, baking spices, caramel butterscotch and well integrated tannins with the fruit. This full bodied wine is approachable in its own and also pairs well with lasagna, steak frites or your favourite dish. — 11 years ago
We discovered this winery Holus Bolus/Hocus Pocus/Genuine Risk from Everson Royce. We had a private tasting in their Lompoc Wine Ghetto garage and fell in love. This very affordable Roussanne is smooth and beautifully drinkable with hints of honeysuckle, peach and maple. Not sweet but also not tart-perfectly balanced. This is a white wine for any occasion. Goes very well with spicy food - we first had this with Quinoa Chili. — 13 years ago
