Finca Fella

Domaine Jean-Louis Chave

Hermitage Blanc Marsanne Roussanne 1985

Cork taint blurred how good this wine could have been. Still a but of life left in the old fella, weighty and rich with great structure. — 8 years ago

Firestone Vineyard

Reserve Santa Ynez Valley Merlot 1995

Leather, cigar leaf, rose water and Bing cherries. Old fella has actually hung in there very well.

Initial sweetness, stewed plums, Swisher Sweets, and almonds land the palate with soft fine tannins. Fades a bit over an hour in the decanter but showcased well.

Château Lousteauneuf

Médoc 2010

Dry with fantastic tannins and beautiful structure. It's even better after it hits the air for a little bit. This is a great find at Costco! Highly recommend for Napa Cab lovers. Pairing this tonight with steak. I'm one happy fella! — 10 years ago

Château Labat

Melanson Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Whoa! Big fella. Held your own alongside two vintages of first growths. Power, structure and enough hidden finesse to last for a good hibernation in the cellar. One of my favorite winemakers who continues to make noise all over the valley. — 9 years ago

Château de Beaucastel

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2001

Matté
9.0

Broad nose with plenty stewed red berry fruit, kirsch, cheery bakewell, prune but also a savoury smokiness. Palate shows more elegance than the nose would suggest with an abundance of red fruits though alcohol pokes out a touch. Felt a touch sorry for this fella as it was drunk just after Lafite 95'.... — 11 years ago

What a glorious wine. It continues to gain in beauty and complexity. This wine is nearly old enough to legally drink itself. Welcome to the outside world, little fella! — 9 years ago

Into this. A shy yet flamboyant little fella. Took a while to open up to its full funky and floral flavors. A little spicy on the nose. If this wine was a person, we'd be friends. — 10 years ago
