Medium lemon color with aromas of stone and citrus fruits, floral and toasty mineral notes. On the palate flavors of ripe apple and pears with citrus and vanilla wrapped in a smooth nutty creamy texture. Medium+ finish, lively acidity, ending with fruit notes, toasty oak and savory lemon character. Nice! — 7 months ago

Sharp fruit, medium finish. A great bargain Merlot at under $20. Gets even better after one hour of oxygen. — 4 years ago

2016 Vintage. This is a big, full bodied, dark fruit, but dry wine. Also has a sweet element. There is a lot going on here. Nice complexity. 89. — 4 years ago

Desbalanceado, con aromas suaves pero intenso en boca, acidez moderada, taninos intensos, estructurado, tabaco, ciruela , berries negros, miel , mantequilla. Recomiendo decanto p espera en copa de 10 a 15 minutos para permitir que se exprese el vino .2016 — 10 months ago

Not very sweet at all, tastes of cocoa powder, light cherry red wine (Sangiovese?) and almost no tannin. Soft, lower alcohol than a red table wine, possibly. Paired well here with cocoa-dusted pumpkin cheesecake. — 4 years ago

1920. Oldest wine I’ve ever opened. Pristine provenance, tasted like old Burgundy. Total stunner. Conversation started at 2015 white Burgundy and somehow we made it to 1920 Rioja. They were super stoked, wish we had another bottle. Red fruit, not really oxidized at all, I would guess they added some CO2 when they recorked these. Good stuff and a total show stopper. A lot of fun. — 6 years ago

Family-owned and operated since 1985. Grapes sourced from several Napa Valley Carneros vineyards, aromas of ripe fruits & sweet spice with smoke notes. On the palate complex fruit, apple, pear & peach with cinnamon and vanilla spices giving way to toasty oak. Lots of French oak aging, perhaps too much. Big buttery oak finish ending a bit bold, about on par with the 2014 vintage (last reserve I tried). For $10+ less, their Alexander Valley Chard from a cooler climate showed more finesse, one of my Fav’s. — 5 years ago
