9.0

Excellent port! Still has many years to go before hitting its peak obviously, but this is already delicious. Boxed raisins, petrol and brown sugar on the nose. Full bodied and a fairly quick finish. Thanks for bringing @Andrew Heffley ! — 8 years ago

I've never had this. If we ever meet I'll tell you my port in a bota bag story.

@Hugh O'Riordan : Evidently, this port is highly decorated with awards. I bet the older vintages are lights out. And I look forward to hearing your bota bag story!

Allegrini

Palazzo della Torre Veronese Corvina Blend 2011

Lite and fruity, low tannins.partly made with dried grapes. — 9 years ago

Trapiche

Oak Cask Mendoza Malbec 2013

This! Let me learn you something: You're hit with smokey plum and deep purple grapes. Keeping this taste, the oak gradually comes through. This taste stays and doesn't fade after day 2. Love this wine! — 10 years ago

Descendientes de José Palacios

Pétalos Bierzo Mencía 2013

Grabbed a bottle I had in my cellar. Nice blend of 4 grapes from the Bierzo Valley. Deep red color with Lighter edges with tons of Berry fruit on the nose adding some sweet floral spice. The smooth soft palate shows cherries, raspberries, and blueberries with a mineral tang. Well balanced with integrated dusty tannins, lively acidity and a smokey dry finish that lingers nicely, excellent structure. Tremendous value. — 8 years ago

Vin Gris De Cigare Grenache Rosé Blend 2014

Grenache dominates but no fewer than 8 different grapes comprise this superb rose. One of the best roses I've tasted! — 10 years ago

Beaulieu Vineyard

Private Reserve Georges de Latour Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

Still needs a serious swirl in the decanter for full enjoyment. Watch out for the fruit flies! These nefarious buggers are officially in abundance now that the grapes are harvested and fermenting (Oct 2014). — 11 years ago

Masi

Brolo Campofiorin Oro Rosso del Veronese Corvina Blend 2009

Made with Oseleta grapes which give the wine a unique character and complementing the Veronese grapes. Deep red with aromas of dark Berry fruits and sweet spice. On the palate, this full body wine shows ripe jammy Berry fruits, a touch of and cacao with sweet vanilla spice. Fine smooth tannins, generous oak and well balanced. You can taste the dried grapes (dried for 2 months) on the long lingering finish. A great value. Tasting Sample. — 8 years ago

Cantina del Pino

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2009

Found another 2009, 100% Nebbiolo grapes grown in the Ovello Cru, a premiere site. Ruby with red Berry fruit, floral and flint aromas. On the palate, cherry, raspberry and ripe strawberry flavors with a touch of earthy floral tastes. Tannins are muted, balanced with acidity, well structured. Drinking great now, should last a few more years but why wait on this beauty? — 9 years ago
