Stunning champagne. Forget about those mass market bottles and buy this vintage grower champagne. 2004. $75. — 10 years ago
Such a great wine, big & approachable...down right delicious. Dark fruit, chocolate, slight cigar on the nose, washes over your palate and dances to your delight. Love this wine, and the price...forget about it! — 10 years ago
Awesome. Don't forget to chill to 54 degrees. — 12 years ago
Maybe the best vintage I've every had from one of my favorite vineyards. The nose is huge, flavor super complex with deep, lasting finish. Valley floor/st. Helena at its very best. Dark fruit finish stays with you. I'll never forget. — 8 years ago
Deep in color and fragrant on the nose, this dark ruby red from Sicily offers a powerful set of aromas: cassis, black olives, cigar box, leather, anise and smoke all come around fairly quickly. This is one of those wines I run across from time to time that smells so good I almost forget to drink it. Almost. The palate is dark and savory. Blackberry and black plum are the most notable fruit flavors, but the Morgante is all about the trimmings. There is a muddy forest floor component and, if you are new to wine, rest assured that it’s a good thing. Minerality comes in abundance and there is a hint of sage there, too, with notes of tea, coffee and root beer finding their way through. — 10 years ago
4/28/15 grand finale at j and j. The 90 is what you thought it was and what I remember. And what you can never forget. The ultimate reminder of why one loves wine. — 10 years ago

Magnum,
Decanting 1 glass first to make sure I get the correct time on it, don't want to miss the sweet spot, 15.8 abv.
30 min to blow off the funky nose then 1 hour to 1.5 hour
Make that 2- 2.5 hour at least on the magnum.
Realm allocation release on Tuesday don't forget! — 8 years ago
Brought by Naoko. We've all heard it and experienced in some cases, the 2000 vintage in Napa wasn't supposed to be that great. The press said it, and we followed suit by not buying. Well, taste this blind and forget anything about that because it's stunning. You can tell it's a cool vintage but after about 30 mins of decanting it really opened up. Gorgeous fruit and very brambly. On a wine list it will most def be underpriced. Nab it. — 9 years ago
A very dark and thick wine, with a strong berry nose and streams of vanilla throughout. Strong tannins and an amazing vanilla flavor that is complemented by the oaky butteriness of this wine! Mollydooker is an excellent winery and they have some truly amazing wines. (PS don't forget the Mollydooker shake!) — 10 years ago
