Opaque in color and chock-full of deep red fruits and berries with a touch of tar and cedar spice. Fully intergraded wine and so pleasurable to drink. I get their Zin and Cab from the winery ever year and have been doing so for 15 or so years. I drink them chronologically no matter what the vintage charts say and these wine never fail to please. — 10 years ago

Tremendous wine, too young and not fully integrated just yet imo, but man when this settles in watch out! — 11 years ago

Carried this back 8 years ago when i visited Bodega the first time. This wine is traditional classic old school Rioja- earthy and fully developed primary nose, soft acid n tannin, haunting finish... 🍷💃 — 12 years ago

One of my favorite red wine in Bordeaux. Strong body and silk mouthfeel. Fully strong scents of red fruits taste like cream cheese cake. Soft with power, nice balance! — 11 years ago

An older chinon is rare for me. Fully resolved green tones yielding bay leaf, dried tobacco leaf and persistent high quality fruit in the mid palate. The warm year tannins still present on the finish. Always learning. — 12 years ago

Fully mature, showing nicely for an underappreciated vintage. On the herbal/earthy side of things, old style Bordeaux giving plenty of pleasure but few fireworks. — 11 years ago

a good bottle of aged Bordeaux just sort of speaks so correctly, yknow? Fully mature, fruit still present, lovely texture and aromatics, classic all around. Wow. — 11 years ago

Lovely sweet black fruits. Tannins not fully integrated yet, so no rush. A very fine, even great, Cali Cab. — 12 years ago
