Popped and poured into a decanter 30 minutes prior. Served double-blind. In the glass, the wine appears a deep garnet with some light staining and what appears to be some slight sediment. Medium+ viscosity. One the nose, a fascinating mix of spiced apple sauce, Fig Newtons, cherries, bruised strawberry, red plum, pink peppercorn, rosemary, baking spices, and pool raft (yes, that’s what you read)…and maaaaybe just a touch of the mouse which could be a clue as to where this might be from. On the palate, the wine is dry, medium tannin, medium++ acid, and alcohol medium+. This wine is complex with a long finish. Frankly, this is incredibly quaffable and ever so pretty! While I think could last longer, the low addition of sulfur has me thinking it’s best to drink these in the next few years. After all, they are delicious right now. — 10 months ago
While i don’t drink cabs often, this was a delicious $9 grab from the store — 6 years ago
Purchased at Binnys September 2023. Might be better to save a bottle from 2017, but it was still very delicious. I’m trying more wines from France’s Rhône Valley in anticipation of visiting there in 2024.
Cost: $60 — 8 months ago
Abrikoser. Marcipan. Parfumeegnet. Rigdom, fedme, viskositet. Fik et glas af en generøs tysker. 😎 (74 euro). — 10 months ago

Terrific. Deep golden in color. A sense of oxidation or maybe more like a sherry cask aroma. Dry. — 7 years ago

Although 2013 and very very young consuming at a restaurant we got to enjoy it a lot more as the time passed and it was decanted. This will be a beauty - shame but still lovely! — 9 years ago

Rich, even a bit viscous. Citrus oil, orange zest. Wow. In a perfect place. — 7 months ago
