A cold & wet year, close or at its peak, so I've been told. — 10 years ago
Brillant Montepulciano. A boire sans modération ! — 12 years ago
Colour made me go 'ahum'..: Amber-orange-gold.
Nose is dominated by caramel, butterscotch, roasted nuts. Evolved, mature. Sure. Clearly this was better, fresher, a few years ago.
But in the mouth it's still surprisingly well balanced, not tired nor oxidised. Interesting notes of sweet tobacco, peach and orange marmelade, dried apricots, honey drizzled pecans. Very nice next to a salade of grilled veggies and Iberico ham! — 10 years ago
Briney, savory, acid with a little cheese rind. This is G...Double Oh good! — 10 years ago
Second time on this. Weird Jolly Rancher note, but a nice wine for high 20's — 11 years ago
Fruity green apple with a hint of spicy finish - very nice balance with acidity. Clearly this wine is destined for a seafood pairing. — 10 years ago
Crisp, clean, and a very good mouth feel. Great for every day sparkles! — 10 years ago
Every once in a while you taste a blend that reminds you why they started blending in the first place... — 11 years ago
