Pingus, named after childhood nickname, deep Ruby with concentrated dark fruit aromas and gently smoky notes. On the palate flavors of cherry and plum, licorice, sweet vanilla spice, well balanced, fine grainy tannins, long finish ending with slight oaky tones. Very Nice! — 5 months ago

Poured into a decanter about an hour prior to service; no formal notes due to the setting. It has been a few years since I last enjoyed the 2015 and I am happy to report that it is now very much open for business. The fruit is on full display and the oak is much better integrated. The structure is still quite firm but I found everything to be in better balance than it was upon release. This is squarely and its drinking window and should remain that way through the remainder of this decade and likely, well beyond. Drink now through 2030+ — 9 months ago
While i don’t drink cabs often, this was a delicious $9 grab from the store — 8 years ago
Reddish in color with medium intensity.
Fresh picked cherries and strawberries on the nose with light chocolates notes.
Medium bodied with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with cherries, strawberries, raspberries, chocolates, earth and spices.
Medium plus on the finish with fine grained tannins and raspberries.
This is a very young Grenache blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Complex and engaging. Nicely balanced and spicy. The high alcohol is well integrated already.
Ripe and fresh tasting at this point, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
Easy drinking and good by itself as a sipping wine.
A blend of 75% Grenache and 15% Syrah with some Mourvedre and Cinsault. Aged mostly in concrete vats for 12 months.
16% alcohol by volume.
91 points.

They don’t make ‘em like they use to. This wine is magic. Had this vintage a decade ago and it was spectacular then, still spectacular now pushing 30. — 3 months ago
