Conde de Hervias

Rioja Tempranillo 2008

This is the Conde 'Conde' bottling, the wine from the vines that are own rootstock, planted in 1874. Darker overall notes, licorice, amazing complexity. That's a thinker. — 9 years ago

Conde de Valdemar Crianza Rioja Mazuelo Tempranillo 2012

темное, темно -вишневый сок. аромат - сладкая вишня, легкая терпкость, слабый миндаль. вкус - довольно высокая кислотность, не очень гармонично поначалу - требует мяса. мало фруктовых нот, очень округлое и аккуратное на финише. интересно — 9 years ago

Цвет насыщенно жёлтый. Оксидативный аромат лежалых абрикосов, желтых яблок, белого перца, шерсти. Достаточно полное тело, насыщенный вкус, соответствующий аромату: желтые фрукты, пряные специи, на заднем плане мокрые камни. Сфокусировано, немного шероховато, с долгим послевкусием. 16,5/20

Castello di Amorosa

Don Thomas Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Exceptional nose, red fruit forward, high quality and dense rich flavors. Mineralality lingering mid pallet. Castello di Amorosa is referred to as the Disneyland of Napa Valley. They have a wine for every price point but not enough attention is paid to their upper end wines. Exceptional 🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 10 years ago

@Benjamin Keator had his hosting at the CC tonight and it was absolutely incredible. What a night of gorgeous wines! All wines are guessed blind.

This dessert wine is about the same age as my Dad. When you can associate a wine/vintage personally, it really opens your eyes to how wine can hold. This is undoubtedly Pedro Ximenez, which I guessed. It reminds me of a non-vintage port with a balsamic mix to it. Tons of black licorice, old brown sugar, and the aforementioned balsamic vinaigrette note. Incredible for the age.

9.9

Sicilian wine from the base of Mount Etna. 95% Nerello Mascalese, 5% Nerello Cappuccio. Soft but chalky, earthy, more low tones, herbaceous but not too much. Medium body, slight rhubarb, but again- not in the way wines can be when they are too young to drink. Really lovely wine. Apparently, the winery is no longer making wine due to lack of interest from the family heirs. — 12 years ago

As I understand it, their vineyard's been purchased by Marco de Grazia from the excellent Etna label Tenuta Della Terre Nere-- so the grapes are in good hands! Mmm, Nerello Mascalese!
