Medium fruit on nose and medium (to slight below medium) tannins with a medium finish. Easy drinking wine that went well with pizza. — 8 years ago

Cassis, tobacco, silky tannins. Needs time to open up so give it a good decant and then drink with food (a big rib eye, perhaps?) — 8 years ago

Total beast. Did a quick double decant since it's 12 years old but should have let it open for a couple of hours. Eye watering nose of dirt, nutmeg, cinnamon, bramble, and camphor. Massive palate with plenty of fruit and tannin left. 45 second finish. What an awesome cab blend! — 9 years ago

cigar/tobacco on the nose, and deep rich long fruits on the finish. Paired incredibly with Oysters Rockefeller and Dry-Age Bone-In Rib Eye! — 9 years ago

Every time I open a bottle of this (and I've kept my eye on it for a decade now) I think it's flawed. It just retains this dumb tannic hold for the first day after opening it. So I sucked the air out of it and kept it in the cabinet for 72 hours. Now it tastes great! Not a lot of primary fruit left but a seriously delicious musty blackcurrent compote. If the secondary berries that seem to be poking their buds through the soil now develop as I hope they will over the next two decades, this will be a very nicely integrated, balanced, and textured wine. It'll be fun to find out! — 9 years ago

Sometimes all you need is a big, bold, Napa cab...paired perfectly with a bone-in rib eye — 11 years ago

Guess this is young but very pure and clean fruit and acidity-tannin balance. Fresh herbs. Perfect with rib-eye steak. At Il Cortile Paso Robles. Actually have trouble not thinking this includes some Sangiovese, either coming from the winemaking style or just Tuscany in my head. — 8 years ago

Pale, clear, Ruby on the eye with medium viscosity. Jammy baked cherries, some cured meat on the nose. Fizzy on your tongue. Sour cherries, strawberries, medium++ acid, and a long, mouth-drying finish. — 9 years ago

This red took a full 2 hours to open up, but the cedar, spice, raspberry and young leather aromas are growing, gradually, in intensity. Now (2 hrs later) the spice and vivacity are off the freakin chart! Very youthful, well-balanced, nuanced. Old school Bordeaux-like, but seems higher in acidity. However, while the acidity is medium+, it is tempered by full, red fruit, 13.5% abv, present but non-intrusive tannins, and a medium-bodied texture with excellent length (over 1 minute). The other factor is the one that says "Wow!", and that is definitely true here. Memorable and unique, I must get more for the wine fridge. — 9 years ago

The 1st time was our favorite dinner ever at Del Posto it was eye opening then and absolutely delicious for Valentine's Day 2016. Our introduction to Gaja, smooth, medium plus weight, red - blue - black fruit. — 9 years ago

9.1

A wine that's often drunk very young - waiting 10 years rewards the patient. A thin film of water at the rim and a hint of candied cherry ahead of a dark core; oven grilled sweet bell-peppers, pepper, figs , sweaty leather, vanilla fudge; well integrated tannins but still a bit of a bite, like an old cheetah sleeping with one eye closed. — 10 years ago

Surprisingly good for boxed wine. Balanced red sec, dried Italian cherries up front (though not too jammy) and notes of clove of the back end. — 8 years ago

In a fascinating place right now. Cascades of depth, flavor and persistent notes of cherry, leather, occasional truffle notes and melting tannins. Paired with incomparable lamb chops and grass fed rib eye cap at LA's finest Argentinian restaurant Carlito Gardel — 9 years ago
