Wonderland Grenache 2013

Everyone likes a story and what hit home about this wine for me had nothing to do with the wine but had to do with him being unapologetic for who he is. His personality matches his wines, big, bold, voluptuous and completely intoxicating (in a good way). The quote that hooked me in? "Ballet lessons aren't cheap, why should my wines be?" As a parent in this business (who also pays for very expensive ballet lessons) I feel you. The wine has pronounced intensity on both the nose and palate of ripe primary fruits (red and black cherries, rhubarb, blackberries, ripe red currants) with an awesome cinnamon stick and black peppercorn notes.big and bold with great acidity, rich ripe tannins and a long finish. Total crowd pleaser, just like him! — 10 years ago

Не пробовал, но знаю, что дорогое — что-то в районе $50. Хотя, может, год такой.

Boyd

Oak Knoll District Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

My wife went to the Boyd Vineyard last weekend on a private tour recommended by a colleague. She liked the 2010 Cab, Oak Knoll District so much, she had the vineyard ship a case home for my birthday. extremely smooth even without giving time to breathe. Not overpowered berry or other fruit, dry but without dust on the rim. You will make a good impression if you bring this to the next dinner party invite but volunteer to open on site as you may not find it again. Just returned from a business trip to my French parent company. I did not taste anything better over there. Concerned how the 2011 will fare given how that poor year is shaping up but there are exceptions, — 11 years ago
