Definitely about the crisp and clean. Agree with the wet stone and after rain descriptors from winery. My favorite 2013 'Cru' Soave so far. Still need to taste Pieropan La Rocca which is typically my favorite. — 11 years ago
This was from the case @Jim Westby had bought decades ago- served blind with steak frites. Although it tasted far too young & fresh to be an 88, I couldn't think of a more recent vintage in this lighter, brighter style. It had so much minerality that I thought it was Graves! — 11 years ago
Really well composed wine. Smooth from beginning to end with balanced tannins and acidity. Mellow flavor with cherry undertones. Dry but even. — 10 years ago
Nice Rutherford Cab from the people of Far Niente and Nickel & Nickel. Rich dark fruit and lingering silky tannins. — 11 years ago
So much 🐴🍂✏️🚬 ! Nice to have an "off vintage" in pristine condition. Far from a blockbuster but delicious, soft, and very easy to drink. #birthyear — 11 years ago
Really nice GSM. Pretty much a Chateauneuf-du-Pape from Washington state. Boysenberry compote! Yum! New World for sure, but with lots of structure and earthy undertones. — 11 years ago
I'm going to come clean, I'm not a huge Caymus fan. It's by no means a bad wine - far from it - but I've always felt they blend their Cab with too much Zin. I could be wrong on that account, but I don't think I am. Still, a nice brooding nose of dark red and blue fruit, with a touch of candied fruit and wet earth. — 11 years ago
Delicious blend from the North Cali coast. Dave Matthews part owner. — 12 years ago

2013 scored 99. How the Pro-rating can be 8.8 is beyond my comprehension. Incredible wine. By far the best vintage that I have ever tasted from this winery whom I love. It's a phenomenal Opus at 1/4th of the cost.
I just picked up another case at $95 per bottle and they are In short supply. I advise everyone to get it while it's still available! 👍it's absolutely beautiful and elegant. Let me know what you think once you've uncorked one.
enjoy!! — 10 years ago
