Intense green apple and tropical fruit with a touch of lees. Zesty and fresh. A little more structure than the norm NZ Sauv. $20 — 9 years ago
Love. can't imagine a wine with a longer finish or more mouth feel. What a treat. With a one hour decant it didn't feel sharp or young in the slightest. — 9 years ago
The color and nose tells you nothing about the age of this wine. Incredibly fresh and youthful on both scores. My nasal passage was flooded with violets and cassis. The flood gates collapsed and my mouth was coated with black currants, licorice and minerals. Paved over my palate like a run away steamroller. Merely a teenager at this stage of evolution. I can only imagine what Father Time will create. If this is your birth year it will be a challenge to out live this wine. — 10 years ago

Victoire from Angelus and Clyde from K&L promoting Bordeaux! This even blend of Merlot and Cab Franc sees nothing but new oak and smells and tastes expensive. As dark as black leather, this powerful wine would be hard to pick out as a 2007. The blue fruit of the franc keeps it fresh and I could imagine it going very well with Clyde's cassoulet! — 11 years ago

Very good Bordeaux, but the notes by Moore Bros were the most accurate I've ever come across. "...complex, exotic aromas that open with griotte cherries, ripe cassis, fresh fennel, crushed violets, and sweet herbs; adding dried figs, dark cocoa, and flecks of pencil shavings as the nose evolves...". Well, I missed the figs but otherwise, yes! And in that order. Remarkable. — 9 years ago
I've been looking forward to trying this producer, and I was not let down! I can only imagine the price will lee going up... gamey, herbal, spicy, refined, elegant. So good! And 2012 is decilous now, though I'm sure will only get better! — 9 years ago
Smooth encroaching Zin. Old school. The balance hides the 15% abv. Woodsy spice and cola and Dr Pepper. Moderate tannin. Very much enjoyed this. — 9 years ago
Damn near perfection from the 2001 vintage tonight. Hard to imagine how it could get better. — 10 years ago
2006. Yummy. A touch fresher, more elegant than the brooding 2010 D'Aiguilhe also tasted same day. Supple with plenty of power. I imagine driving a Porsche would feel similar. — 10 years ago
Still one of my favorite zins — 11 years ago
Good Zin. Clean fruit and palate with nice freshness. — 11 years ago

Needless to say, we slayed some dragons tonight. Let the birthday week continue!
This was the one wine that was poured blind from the evening. I guessed Napa (check), I guessed early 2000s (check), but figured it a petite sirah, mainly due to the amount of lively fruit in this! Since my experience with Caymus is limited to the 40th anniversary, you can imagine how my eyes were opened. At 16yrs old, this was blueberry pie, cassis, chocolate liquor and great oak integration. Tannins were PERFECT at this point. Open if you have it! — 9 years ago


Really speechless... Just imagine the best thing ever to hit your tastebuds outside of the bedroom, pure palate ecstasy — 9 years ago

God I love young Chambolle Musigny this one with its medium weight red fruit full of racy raspberry and a hint of spice. Beautifully structured but without making a big deal of it. Ethereal now so it's hard to imagine waiting a decade for a promise to be fulfilled. I know. I know... — 10 years ago
$26, Moore Brothers, minerally, clean, a bit fruity with pear after notes — 10 years ago
Whoa. Double decanted. Remnants of a four hour hold in decanter. Unbelievable. Can only imagine this wine with normal maturity. Bravo, Heidi — 10 years ago

Our favorite from Moore Bros. so far. Smells vegetal, but not rotten or mossy. Medium bodied. Dry. Not fruity, except maybe something like sour plum. Easy to drink. — 8 years ago
