Typical German Reisling petrol nose with light fruit and pleasant minerality — 11 years ago
This wine is incredible! Soft and smooth as silk. Herbal and violet aromas. Red cherry fruit with hints of chocolate and tobacco. Outstanding balance between fruit and organics. 14.4% alcohol but not overwhelming in the least. Thanks to Kieth Soltis for opening this bottle. — 8 years ago
This is astonishing. Beautiful and powerful with a smoky, oaky, black-fruity, spicy nose that won't quit. Palate is rich with loads of fruit, sweet vanilla oak, and a port-like quality. This wine has monastrell's blueberry, black fruit, iron tincture, and beef blood signature. Skip the steak and pair this with savory for foods for a fantastic contrast. Finish is long and playfully tasty. — 11 years ago

Oaky berry campfire. Not a typical cab. Lay down a few years to take off some fruit for some more substance. — 8 years ago

Got to work on getting back to Rioja. It’s been 20+ years. Majestic and a bit to big for my taste but still very enjoyable. Very soft tannins and oak quite present but not vulgar in any way. — 8 years ago
