Love Paul Hobbs! What a cool collaboration. This wine is rich & elegant, but just right with a simple pasta at home on a cold Thursday night. — 7 years ago

Parker gave it 96 Points.
He's a pretty tough grader!
Tonight it is singing...
More like 98 for me!
Fantastic Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon, deep concentration, black & blue fruits with big aromatics. In a really good place, still gobs of fruit with integrated fine tannins; long finish that seems to linger on the pallet long after it's down. Taste it & you quickly want another sip.
Share, drink em' if you have it! Cheers & Enjoy!🍇🍷👍 — 9 years ago

Fell in love with De Salis wine and this one is no exception. Still very young but drinking nicely. Had the pleasure of meeting the wine maker and his passion comes through in the wines. If you like this one try some of his others like the Pinot - unreal! — 11 years ago

This has held up very well. Pristine orchard fruit flavors in tandem with roasted nuts and lively acidity. Could easily pass for Premier Cru juice from Chablis. Crack em open if you got em! — 8 years ago

Powerhouse of a wine. Like a Marine ready for battle. But zen in balance. It's so smooth and the finish lasts for-ever. They don't make em' like they used to. — 9 years ago

Vermentino...? It came on strong recommendation from the best wine guy I know, my Dad. So here we go... Delicate aromatics, grassy, honeydew mellon hints of orange zest with a light to medium body and balanced acidity. Really quite delicious and an excellent break the same old California varietals. Nice pick Dad, keep 'em coming! — 10 years ago

The best winemaker in Montefalco Sagrantino. Exceptional.
Sweet Rich black fruit, plums, spice, blackberry, em smooth but Dense palate doesn't show the 15.5% at all. Fine tannins. Could have a longer finish of being critical but such nice balanced soft mouthfeel. Great wine. — 11 years ago

Bodacious is the name, and smokey, sultry petit syrah the game. I'd prefer a little less char (toast on their barrels I gather), but this id chewy and ripe and intense, just like I like em. :) — 13 years ago

Double decant (lots of chunky sediment). A resplendent dark ruby red color. Nose: red fruit, pine, wet forest floor, cedar, brown sugar cinnamon. Taste: soft mouthfeel with some fading fruit - black cherry, tobacco, chocolate, and graphite. Medium acidity with a medium finish....drink em if you got em! — 7 years ago

Queen B. Darker and spicier than the -12. More molasses, less jamminess. Ass kicking as usual. Any more density would require chewing. Stupendous. Drink em young! — 9 years ago

Daqueles fenomenais da #susanabalbo. Frutado, pouco alcoólico, bem amadeirado. Achei perdido num mercado em Uberlândia. (: acho que ele foi guardado da pior forma possível, mas foi excelente. Tava a pouco tempo de passar do tempo perfeito pra degustar. — 10 years ago

Not a great vintage, but this shows classic aged claret character. Spot on with braised short ribs. Drink up if you've got 'em. Surprised to find zero sediment in the bottle. — 11 years ago
