Really rich and tannic, plus a hint of grape hard candy. — 7 years ago
The final bottle of the case. This wine is now darker and smokier on the nose with less of the blue fruit and more of the stewed black fruits. The palate still has wonderful acidity but is far less lush. Flavors of wet earth mingle with darker stewed plum and blackberries and lead to a bit of a shorter finish that shows a touch more puckering acidity. — 8 years ago
Low alcohol content and decent tannins make this wine easy drinking. And not bad for a prelude to something more serious down the road. — 8 years ago

Fabulous relaxed & reasonably priced meal at “Blanc” in the Mandarin Oriental with Chef Carme Ruscalleda, whose restaurants have won 7 Michelin stars! ⏩ Scroll for delish city’s food pics on Instagram ⏩
A truly unique wine that’s €112 in restaurant & €56 from winery that went with all the foods shown perfectly 😍

(17.5/20) Элегантный аромат чёрных яблок и шоколада с нотами специй. Тельное с довольно высокой кислотностью и интенсивными танинами. Насыщенно ягодно-шоколадное во вкусе. Отлично! #fenavin2017 — 9 years ago

Excellent Napa Cab from Montes. The 2008 summer was very hot, keeping yields low and providing concentrated berries at harvest. This is a big, full bodied wine delivering lots of ripe dark fruit, pepper, tobacco and some chocolate. Smooth and almost velvety in the mouth it has a long and pleasant finish. Decanted for 2 hours, this will last another 15 years or more.

Lots of minerals on the nose. Petrol, some typical Riesling fruit and sweet perfume leading to an expectation of off dry. But it has a light body and is quite pleasantly dry and very lively. Sprightly. Medium finish. — 6 years ago
