Continues to carry the flag for Texas wines. To me, this is the icon of Texas wine production. Consistently velvety red fruits, leather, a little jalapeño jelly, and soft tannins. — 10 years ago

Icon. Future of serious Vinho Verde, even more serious Alvarinho. Amazing wine! — 11 years ago
The pale straw '10 Nobilo Icon Sauvignon Blanc has fresh aromatics of pink grapefruit, citrus peel, gooseberry and a hint of litter box. The refreshing palate has flinty minerality and juicy acidity. It's a little more restrained than most NZ SB's. Nice tropical fruit in the generous and persistent finish. — 12 years ago
Fantastic! A spanish icon. To drink now, in 5, 10, 15 and 20 years. A wine from the Vega Sicilia winemaker for 30 years. — 11 years ago
An Australian icon-aged Clare Valley Riesling (in those days called Rhine Riesling unfortunately due to our country's slim knowledge base but later corrected against a barrage of opposition from conservatives and industrial makers of riesling, but not using riesling!) Classic glass of flavour; #honey #burnttoast #agedriesling #brulee #butter #crunch #yum #mouthful #watervale #treasuryestates ; wine made by the great man John Vickery before his defection to Richmond Grove when the Fosters people closed the brand down; but now it is back! Wine won three gold medals in the year of production-1990; probably never shown since. 12.5%; 1990 a terrific red year, usually not so for riesling; this had backbone; sweet acidity; nut power. — 11 years ago
