2004 vintage. From Jay. 2004 Bartolo Mascarello - Brief Note from Galloni Historical Retrospective Held in London April 26, 2016. Dark ruby colour. Fresh violets on the nose together with cherries. A little tobacco wrapper. Cracked cloves. Nice fruit on the pallet and very silky. This is both elegant and old school in all the right ways. 92+/100. Drink 2017 to 2028+ — 10 years ago

Now this is an interesting wine, savennieres-like--waxy/tart/oxidative-- but wilder, less tamed, drinking it felt very much like entering a time machine, worth seeking out if interested in historical wines. — 10 years ago

Loved this Barbaresco coming from a Barolo producer. One of the few who can vinify it in barolo becaise of historical roots. Lovely! Gallina cru is the best! #neive #barbaresco #oddero #lamorra 2011 vintage — 11 years ago

An interesting bouquet that leads into a well and interesting blend of Zin & Syrah - first time I've had this blend of grapes and it's actually quite good! The "jam" of a good vibrant Zin with the mature finish of a well rounded Syrah - it's a nice harmony even with the clever label and historical reference...well worth the premium price tag! — 11 years ago

Gravelly rocky vyard with old scrub waist-high vines. Benito Dusi Ranch farmed by Benito since 1940s (older brother Dante owned vyard twice as big and half as old.... Turley/four vines/J.Dusi origins). Oldest vines in Paso. First winery to put "PasoRobles" on a wine label est 1969 (not officially AVA until ten years later in the 80s) so keep it as appellation for historical purposes even though it's a single vineyard. 3 miles south of 101. 25acres/92-years old planted in 1922. Head trained, 2.6t/a. Purple floral nose; Dark, brooding, black fruit, molasses, tar, and barrel spice on the palate. Robust well knit tannin. — 10 years ago

Promising. L006 far far too young. Lovely tannins in the finish but will need a decade or three to articulate. — 11 years ago

Lot of superlatives but it's a Kermit Lynch historical tasting... Mind blowing, complex and rich but crisp due to altitude. Worth the price. Very special. — 11 years ago

A lovely wine from within the city limits of Vienna, the second one this month, both were delicate, pretty wines, not powerful in any way, but nuanced and subtle. I'll be seeking these out to try and understand this uber-historical wine region that seems to make such under-stated but delicious wines. — 10 years ago

Its a historical rum with the exact recipie from the british navy since 1655 to 1970. This is supposedly the same stuff issued to british sailaors for their rum rations or "tot" for nearly 300 years. And its pretty good! — 11 years ago

My all time favorite Anchor beer, and the one they have been since April 18, 1975, it is why I am reviewing this beer now, Fourth of July coming up, it was really to celebrate the 200th Anniversary of Paul Revere's historical ride, and it is also my birthday, April 18th, but back to the brewery and this beer, if you did not know, Anchor Brewery is the very first craft breweries in the USA, when they brewed this beer it was the very first American IPA's some today call it a American Pale Ale, it is brewed with cascade whole cone hops, with a rich malt backbone, by today's standards it seems quite mild, not over hoppy, nor bitter, super well balanced, I love this beer and one of my personal favorites, been drinking this since 1978, It is a true classic that had held up so well, excellent beer all around, pairs with just about any food, and just great tasting, I am a little basis on this, so I give it the highest grade, just because it really was the very first IPA in America and for me, and the price is dirt cheap for such a well made beer from a Outstanding Pioneer brewery — 11 years ago
