Brooding monster the 2010, a first for me from Lokoya. Needed 2 hours to really express itself in my glass. Bold and rich with big fleshy tannins. Must try more! Thanks Larry. Chophouse group Monday — 11 years ago
Also magnum- the better of the two, more balanced - not quite showing the heat as much- smoother softer finish. Nice layers to this one..riper cab, but not too ripe. 9.1+? — 11 years ago

Solid but unspectacular. I doubt this will get any better than it is. Syrah/cabernet sauvignon blend. The nose is all cabernet, but it's all syrah in the mouth. Blueberry notes, still tannic. The parts are good, but the whole doesn't quite get there. — 10 years ago

4 hour decant and this big boy was still closed down. What little it revealed hinted at the monster wine this will become. Still very primary extracted black fruit, pencil shavings, camphor, mammoth tannins with fresh acid. Desperately needs time to open up. — 11 years ago

notes of black cherry pie and a touch of chocolate with a little more residual sugar than a typical port — 9 years ago
Bright red fruit flavors with lush tannin. This wine can enjoyed on its own, with friends, on a sunny day. Or with rich duck confit and bbq'd red meats. Can't beat the price. -wine batman — 10 years ago
Super easy to drink! Will be finishing this bottle tonight. Or at least I wouldn't be surprised if I did. It's not over powering or spicy. Just very very light, a tad sweet, and a tiny sweet finish. — 10 years ago
Need to find some more of this! — 10 years ago
Very dark opaque burgundy/purple with slight brick hue showing, India ink, blackberry, black cherry, some tobacco undertone, licorice, nutmeg and raspberry, full body and round mouthfeel, tastes of berry, pomegranate, pepper and cedar, chewy and sweet tannin with firm backbone, long finish with spicy notes and Assam tea lingering on the tongue. — 11 years ago
