Lovely dark and fruity. Great with steak and pork. I love the mixture of the negromaro grape and primitivo grape. — 8 years ago

It confirms the main characters of the previous vintage. Black pepper in the end, alcohol and acidity very well balanced — 9 years ago
Very rich tasting wine for summer - best enjoyed with some BBQ. Reminds me of Argentinian wines. Dark berry aroma. Cherry, dark berry taste with some oak finish. — 10 years ago
Dark fruits, some sweetness balanced by soft tannins. Delicious on its own or with food!! — 10 years ago
Amazing blend I feel like it had a lot of Zin due to the spicy finish. Definitely recommend — 11 years ago

Lush black fruit flavors accompanied by lavender spice in the bouquet. This one sneaks up on you with the 15% abv. A modern take on the pleasures of drinking wines from the Cotes due Rhone. — 9 years ago
Bottled May 30, 2014. A little bit of added weight due to the aging. Really nice. — 9 years ago
Carmignano classico, sangiovese, i due cabernet e merlot. Grande morbidezza e equilibrio, tannini gustosi e facili da bere, bei terziari che spostano in alto la complessità. Il Carmignano spesso resta in disparte ma merita veramente tanto. — 9 years ago

Our Christmas dinner wine. Love everything about this wine. Excellent tannins. Soft, structured. Maybe slightly young still. But a rare find. — 10 years ago

Bordeaux wine dinner; 6/18/15: Pichon Lalande 1990 - Lighter color than others, I think passing its prime. A little dry on the finish but perfectly nice still. Gruaud Larose 1989 - Very classic nose and palate of cedar and pine notes. Most silky palate of the bunch. Two at the table thought it was wine of the night. Not as much to my taste but very much classy Gruaud. Cos 1986 - Funky barnyard nose. Deep palate with still strong tannin, but plenty of fruit coming through. Liked it but there was some brett there that to me, hurt. Lynch Bages 1985 - For me, the wine of the night, largely due to the truly stunning nose. A tad dry on the palate but still long finish of dark fruit. — 10 years ago
Spicy and fruity, really delicious to drink on it's own. Near minerality due to shale in soil. — 10 years ago

I opened this same bottle in 2011 and was not impressed due to the strong tannins. 2 years later, this bottle has evolved! The berries are very prominent at the onset and the finish lingers at the back pallate. Loving this wine now! — 12 years ago
Amazingly smooth probably due to the messily 12%. Tons of deep fruit with notes of dark cherry and a slight balsamic flavor. Beautiful oak with a medium finish. Very enjoyable for the taste I had. — 12 years ago
