Was lucky enough to share this bottle with only its owner over the course of a long dinner. It evolved beautifully in the decanter, taking about an hour to round out its tannins and another 90 minutes or so until a layer of red fruit emerged (along with blood, graphite and pepper). Hope we meet again! — 8 years ago

Lagunitas crushed it with this Red. Before I got into IPAs, ambers were my thing. This one is off the charts good. If you are a big Fat Tire fan, you may not appreciate the higher IBUs and ABV. If you are someone who likes both IPAs and Ambers, you're going to friggin love this. Makes me teary eyed to think this is a limited release and yet Buttweiper continues to exist. — 9 years ago

Oh Jesus. Declassified and/or young cornas so obviously. You are very lucky if you have this stuff or somehow come across it. Animals animals on barbecues barbecues served on a boysenberry pie. I feel healthy and strong. I'm ready to climb a mountain. That's what the fuck I'm talking about. — 10 years ago

First, a person has to pause and realize how lucky they are to drink this wine from 3L. Thanks Clyde for opening. This is in a perfect stage. Such evolution, length, balance, structure. Love the lower 80's alcohol levels. It's rich, lush and near perfect. Dark cassis; ripe and resolved blackberries, dark cherries, black plum w/skin, mixed berry liqueur, tobacco leaf, leather so soft you would wish it as a pillow cover, dry pebbles, dark rich earth, perfect acidity and a rich, elegant, ripe dark fruit finish. In 3L, this wine still has 10-15 years. — 9 years ago

I've liked all the Arista pinots and chardonnay I've had. This is no exception. Full body. Strawberries. Lush. These drink really well young. Not sure how they will do as they age. — 9 years ago

Tasted this 6 years ago and it was flat and lifeless. Today it exploded with leathery goodness. Great time to drink, if you're lucky enough to have some in the cellar. — 9 years ago

This 2006 “Lucky” Bordeaux blend features Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from the esteemed Spring Mountain appellation in Napa Valley, as well as, Merlot from steep-sloped vineyards in the benchlands of west Dry Creek Valley. A dash of Napa Cabernet Franc adds depth and rounds out the blend. And what a blend it is! Dense and concentrated without being over-ripe and heavy-handed, this wine is a tour-de-force of flavors and finesse. — 13 years ago

Pierre Lurton dropped by the shop today with this bottle (among others - lucky me)! Fresh and vivacious. 53% Cab Franc & 47% Merlot. Cool green Franc character really shines without occupying the field. Fine, elegant tannins lend beautiful bone structure. I'm sure this will age forever, but I thought it was drinking spectacularly well today. — 9 years ago

This made me realize as a novice wine drinker that dirt makes all the difference. Chile has a distinct way to bring out the parts of a grape that you feeling in the back of your mouth. A great fun CabSav. Best shared in one sitting. — 10 years ago
