This Italian wine is unique. Floral Aromas and berries. Slightly sweet on first taste , labels says finishes of candied violets. I have never tried candied Violets. Might have to try them sometime. When you are looking for a wine that has a subtle sweetness but does not taste syrupy this is it! Yum . I have never had Refresco grapes. Very interesting flavor. DULCE!!!!!!! — 8 years ago

Sunday wine-down with a favorite Cab (with your typical Bordeaux blending grapes to smooth it out). The first good Cabernet I ever tasted when first learning about wine (association is such a powerful thing). This is a very good vintage. Almost sweet, in the very best of ways. It almost smells like a Kir Royale. You could definitely wait, but for you impatient people like me, try it - you won't be disappointed... — 10 years ago

Third time trying this wine, opened the day before. From my father’s cellar. Something very interesting that I found out about this estate is that they air dry 30% of the grapes before they begin the fermentation process. The color is dark opaque garnet red with the brownish edges. Within the nose there are a lot of sweet berries or prunes. As it opened up more some brown sugar and hard candy came with the nose. The palate was very interesting, because of how sweet the nose smelt compared to the palate. The mouthfeel started off very sweet and light then changed to full and lingering finish. A little fur dancing across the tongue drying out my mouth. Soft/light start across the tongue and then spikes mid to end of the tongue. Not yet at the end of its life, probably has about two or so years left in it. Very interesting varietal that I need to get more experience with. Great QPR, especially for an Italian wine and only for $19. — 10 years ago

This is a Valpolicella blend without Molinara but with some Croatina. Grapes come from volcanic soils of San Briccio Cru, near Mezzane. 2004 is a 4-stars vintage, great texture and softness, highly enjoyable after 10 years. — 11 years ago
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. — 9 years ago
Exceptionally wonderful to drink. Went perfect with the dry aged Liberty farms duck breast at Solage in Calistoga. A very fruity smelling drink that blends the best of coastal Pinot grapes. I would want a faucet installed in my house with this stuff coming out of it when I'm thirsty. — 10 years ago
One of my absolute favorites for a cheap wine. Smooth and relaxing to end a tough day at work. — 10 years ago

Pickled grapes, candied nuts, currants, oak on the nose. Juicy! Blackberries, oaky tannins, herbs with some fresh vegetables (mint, pepper, thyme). Drinking fantastically with more life left! — 11 years ago

An absolutely delicious field blend (Nebbiolo, Croatina, some other local characters including white grapes) to drink while we're waiting for its more serious Piedmontese cousins to come around. Spicy, fruit forward, feather light, one of those bottles that just disappears. — 8 years ago
